How to modify an INI configuration file via ANT build.xml ?

[Jeff Tanner]

Hi

Through an ANT build.xml, I want to modify a setting within a project's config.ini file.

For example, from default setting:
app_service_api=UNDEFINED

to a setting defined within build.xml:
app_service_api=QA

How can I do this

Thanks

You need to add a <filterchain> section to the <copy> task and use the <replacetokens> option (or some other filter chain option). See:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/Types/filterchain.html

Here is a discussion I had about this earlier this year:
