In Ant, how can I test if a property ends with a given value?
For example
<property name="destdir"
value="D:\FeiLong Soft\Essential\Development\repository\org\springframework\spring-beans" />
how can I test if ${destdir}
ends with "spring-beans"
?
additional:
In my ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar, without 'endswith' task~~
As Matteo, Ant-Contrib contains a lot of nice stuff, and I use it heavily.
However, in this case can simply use the <basename>
task:
<basename property="basedir.name" file="${destdir}"/>
<condition property="ends.with.spring-beans">
<equals arg1="spring-beans" arg2="${basedir.name}"/>
<condition>
The property ${ends.with.spring-beans}
will contain true
if ${destdir}
ends with string-beans
and false
otherwise. You could use it in the if
or unless
parameter of the <target>
task.
