Hi

I have an x.properties file like this:

file=somedir/${specific}/myfile.jar


I load this properties file in maven like this:

<util:properties var="props" file="x.properties" />


I set "specific" like this:

<jelly:set scope="parent" var="specific" value="here" /> 
(not sure why I needed scope="parent" here, but otherwise the echo below did 
not work.
There seems to be no doc on the scopes one can set, or maybe I missed it).


When I then say:

<j:set var="name" value="${props.getProperty('file')}" />
<echo>${name}</echo>


it writes correctly:

    [echo] somedir/here/myfile.jar


but when I say:

<ant:unjar src="${file}" ..... />


ant complains that it does not find file:

somedir/${specific}/myfile.jar


Any idea why?

Regards
Mark Donszelmann
