ant
Hi,
all my projects and their versions are defined in a properties file like this:
ProjectNameA=0.0.1
ProjectNameB=1.4.2
I'd like to iterate over all projects and use there names and versions in an ant script. Right now, I read the entire properties file in help of the property task.
Then I iterate over a given list in a for loop like this:
<for list="ProjectNameA,ProjectNameB" param="project">
   <sequential>
    <echo message="@{project} has version ${@{project}}" />
   </sequential>
</for>
How can I avoid the duplication of the project names in the for loop. So basically iterate over each line and extract the name and the version of a project.
Thanks.
