Replacing but not thwhole file

[momo momo <mo...@hotmail.com>]

Hi all,

I want to replace in a file "#project" by "project" but not in the whole 
file. Only from the begining to the string "# end part1". Is that possible 
to do it with the task replace or replaceregexp?

I want to make exmaple2.txt from example.txt, part2 stay the same.
example.txt:
#begin part1
#project.key1=1
#project.key2=A
#end part1

#begin part2
#project.key3=Z
project.key3=W
#end part2


example2.txt:
#begin part1
project.key1=1
project.key2=A
#end part1

#begin part2
#project.key3=Z
project.key3=W
#end part2

I tried some codes:
	<replaceregexp file="example.txt"
		match="#(project.*# end : config liée à l'environnement.*)"
		replace="\1"
		flags="gs"
	/>

but I didn't succeed!
I allways get all changes or one change...

Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks to help me

You can't turn replacement on and off within a file, but you can try to use
token replacement for the comment character itself.  For example,

example.txt:

#begin part1
@PART1@project.key1=1
@PART1@project.key2=A
#end part1

#begin part2
@PART2@project.key3=Z
project.key3=W
#end part2

Now, you can set the tokens PART1 and PART2 separately to either "" (empty
string) or "#".  If you always want a particular key set, then don't prefix
it with a token, e.g. project.key3.  For example:

<copy file="example.txt" toFile="example2.txt">
  <filterset>
    <filter token="PART1" value=""/>
    <filter token="PART2" value="#"/>
  </filterset>
</copy>

Another alternative would be to use a smarter preprocessor, such as VPP,
http://vpp.sourceforge.net.
