copy environment specific property files using ant

[nlr reddy]

Hi,

I'm trying to copy property files to their right environment using ant.

Suppose, I have three files like below

jsp-dev.properties, jsp-test.properties, jsp-prod.properties.

Now, I would like my ant script to copy right file to the right environment.

if I give env in build.properties as dev, it should trim "-dev" from the file and copy the file to dev.
like copy jsp-dev.properties to jsp.properties and push to dev environment.

Can anyone help me here?

Thanks,

Take a look at the <propertyRegexp> task in Ant Contrib. it lets you grab regular expressions from a property. Which means you can search for dev, store it in another property and replace it with an empty string.

thanks.

I have used mapper to rename and copy the file.
