You don't need to nest the ${} syntax. Everything inside a ${} block is an expression so you can reference properties by name. So what you need is:
${string::replace( testReplace,'bb', testValue) }
hope that helps.

Hi all,
I try to do a string::replace on one of my properties as following:
<target name="test"> <property name="testReplace" value="aabbcc" /> <property name="testValue" value="zz" /> <echo message="${string::replace('${testReplace}','bb','${testValue}')}" /> <echo message="${testReplace}" /> </target>
I would expect to get 'aazzcc' but instead this is the result:
[echo] ${testReplace} [echo] aabbcc
It looks like Nant doesn't parse the parameters correctly: it treats '${testReplace}' as '${testReplace}' instead of 'aabbcc'. When I try to omit the quotes, I get an error that the build file is not correct so that's not working either.
Can someone please shed some light on this problem?
Thanks,
Jo De Greef
