RE: encoding problem with tokens (on Linux)

I assumed that filterfiles had to be in properties file syntax but I do not know this to be the case. If this is true then I would expect your tokens.file has something that looks like: A=\U1234 (were 1234 the excaped unicode representation of your cat glyph) If so then the token will be replac

Something else to consider is if the file is in one of the areas that´s protected by UAC (like Program Files) it may not be where you think it is. It might be in your windows virtual store... so java looks for it in Program Files/mysoftware but does not find it there because in reality it resid

RE: AW: Modify xml file

You should exercise caution when using replace to substitute tokens in xml files and property files because some chars &<>'" need to be escaped in xml files. You need to be sure that the string that you are inserting into the xml will never have such characters, or you must escape yourself. Si

adding filters to a filterset

Hello, I'm hoping someone can tell me if this is possible. I'm beginning to think that since there is no set method in Project that this simply is not possible. I define a filterset in a target and then call a custom task to which I pass the refid of the filterset.

Just be careful if you are using filterchain/filterreplace on binary files. Encoding issues can end up transcoding some bytes in binary files. Much has been written on this topic and I would pay close attention. -alec -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED

You could use to read the file into a property then use the contains in the condition task to check for the string. If the file is big then you probably want to use a filterchain to subset it. -Alec -Original Message- From: Rob Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November
