Re: JLink replacement

2007-07-25 Thread Doug Lochart
Martin, I do not know of an alternative (there might be one) but I have never had to do what you are doing. Have you considered getting the source for JLink and then making it your own ant task? You can then adjust it to suit your needs? Just a thought. Maybe someone can chime in and say wh

If you need to generate something dynamically using a template I would use Velocity. It is easy to make a velocity task (I believe by now one might exist) and you can use it. You can feed Velocity a context of parameters and spit out a new build file very easily. just a thought Peter Reilly
