How can I use regular expression in task?
Hi,
How can I use regular expression in <replace> task?
I have an ant call like this:
<replace file="A.java" token="A implements IField1, IField2, IField3"
value="public class Field" />
how can I use regular expressesion to replace "IField1, IField2,
IField3" with any characters? So that this replace will still work
even if I 'A' implements more interface?
Thank you.

You can't. You must use <replaceregexp> instead. --DD
