[Nant-users] How to maintain property files?

[Sachin Shriram Gedam]

Hello Friends,

I am maintaining our property files in the format of “.build” files itself. Like:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="mesDeveloperCommonConstatns">
    <!-- mention other properties used by all developers -->
    <property name="build.src.location" value="..\..\..\config\mesDil\src"/>   
    <property name="build.lib.location" value="..\..\..\tools\ext"/>
  </project> 

But our client wants this property file, like ANT property file with extension as ".property" and structure (may be he want to use same file in ANT also), like this

build.src.location=="..\..\..\config\mesDil\src"
build.lib.location=="..\..\..\tools\ext"

Can we use our property file as ANT property file, if so then how?

Waiting for your valuable guidance.
