although not obvious from the manual page for filterchain
most of the tokenfilter filters may also be used directly
under <filterchain> so the following will also work:

<project>
   <copy file="a_file_with_crlf"
tofile="a_file_without_crlf">
       <filterchain>
          <ignoreblank/>
       </filterchain>
   </copy>
</project>

Hello,

I also encountered this problem. Here is a sample that
does the job:
<project>
   <copy file="a_file_with_crlf"
tofile="a_file_without_crlf">
       <filterchain>
           <tokenfilter>
               <ignoreblank/>
           </tokenfilter>
       </filterchain>
   </copy>
</project>

a_file_with_crlf:
this is a line

this is a sencond line


more crlfs

another line

yet another on

two more and file ends


After running the above ant snippet, a_file_without_crlf contains: this is a line this is a sencond line more crlfs another line yet another on two more and file ends

If you use OS pipes, you will appreciate
filterchains.
