Asking this question again. Is there anyway to force-load a diffrent
property file in Anthill project property sheet even the build.xml loads
one by default?
In the build.xml file I already tell it to load .build.properties and on
a DOS cmnd line I can supercede it by doing ant -propertyfile
c:\.build.properties.xyz and it works perfectly but I'm not sure how to
do this in Anthill.
The 2 prop files have a lot of common values except 2 values having
different paths destined for different platforms
You could pass down the name of a property file to the build, and have
that loaded on demand. If you use <loadfile> the build will fail if the
file is missing: (from diary/core/chapter7.xml btw)
<target name="ftp-init" depends="init">
<fail unless="server">Set the "server" property!</fail>
<property name="ftp.propfile" location="secure/${server}.properties" />
<loadproperties srcFile="${ftp.propfile}" />
</target>
set a project up with a default server, and override on the command line
with a different one. Most IDEs and CI tools yet you define new properties.
