How Ant can get a value read from a file into a property value?
15,068
The following does the trick for me:
<loadfile srcfile="data" property="result">
<filterchain>
<linecontains>
<contains value="a2"/>
</linecontains>
<tokenfilter>
<replacestring from="a2," to=""/>
</tokenfilter>
</filterchain>
</loadfile>
<echo message="${result}"/>
As you pointed out, first the line the the 'a2' will be selected. The tokenfilter then replaces a2 and the colon with nothing. Hope that helps.

The file looks like:
a1,b1 a2,b2 ...
I know the value "a2". How to get the value "b2" into a property value.
I know how to select line which contains "a2" by:
<linecontains> <contains value="a2"/> </linecontains>
But I do not know how to set a property value to "b2". I am at your disposal for more other information.
