Syntax error with javascript in macrodef ?!

["Rebhan, Gilbert" <Gi...@huk-coburg.de>]

Hi,

i have a common_targets.xml, with all my macrodefs

Most of that macrodefs make use of javascript (js.jar)

Sometimes i get an error like that =

C:\SCM\skripte\config\common_targets.xml:51: SyntaxError: octal escape

Here's the part of my script with line 51 marked =


<cccheckout viewpath="@{modulbase}" reserved="true"/>
<cccheckout viewpath="@{modulbase}/@{modulfile}" reserved="true"/>
            
<copy file="${ant.working.dir}/deploy/${mname}/@{modulfile}"
  tofile="@{modulbase}/@{modulfile}" overwrite="true" />
                
 <for param="file">
     <path>
         <fileset dir="${ant.working.dir}/deploy/${mname}"
includes="*.*"/>
      </path>
     <sequential>
------- line 51 ------------> <var name="fend" unset="true" /> <-------
line 51 ------------
       <script language="javascript">
            index=("@{file}".lastIndexOf('.'));
            fend="@{file}".substring(index);
            project.setProperty("fend", fend);
        </script>
     </sequential>
</for>


Anyone using javascript in macrodefs with the same problem ?
The exception is thrown by js.jar but i don't know why.
Exactly the same macrodefs are running fine in production ?!?

I already googled for the error message but nothing found.


Regards, Gilbert
