Macrodef @{x}
I have committed the changes to change from ${x} to @{x} for
macro attributes substitution.
Usage of macrodef is now as follows:
<macrodef name="example">
<attribute name="x"/>
<sequential>
<echo>The attribute has the value '@{x}'</echo>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
This can be called as follows:
<example x="a value"/>
The escape sequence @@{ may be used to escape the substitution:
<macrodef name="example">
<attribute name="x"/>
<sequential>
<echo>The attribute @@{x} has the value '@{x}'</echo>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
<example x="a value"/>
Will result in:
[echo] The attribute @{x} has the value 'a value'
The mechanisms for substition are different for properties and
macrodef attributes so one may now do the following:
<macrodef name="double">
<attribute name="prop"/>
<sequential>
<echo>@@{prop} is '@{prop}', value of $${@{prop}} is
'${@{prop}}'</echo>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
<property name="property" value="A property value"/>
<double prop="property"/>
resulting in:
[echo] @{prop} is 'property', value of ${property} is 'A property
value'
These changes will be available for the next ant 1.6 beta build.

Sounds very very good. The light of the 1.6 release seems to come closer to
the horizon.

Strange, the output in linux using jvm 1.4.2_02 is different:

Failing testcases [was Macrodef @{x}]
Posted by Antoine Lévy-Lambert <an...@antbuild.com>.
OK I have fixed some problems, as usual rather simple.
I still have 3 testcases of
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.AntLikeTasksAtTopLevelTest failing under
cygwin, but not under plain Windows.
I did not look at the guts of the test yet to find out what is wrong.
JDependTest has still 2 testcases failing, and is currently disabled in
build.xml.
Here is the output of one of the failing testcase of JDependTest :
[junit] Testcase: testXml took 0,08 sec
[junit] FAILED

Hi Conor,
I would like to have a look at the failing testcases before releasing the
next beta, but it is going to be quick.

Let's crank out the next beta - is there anything else we are waiting for?

Correct. For HEAD I've held back the change since the xml-commons
project is looking into doing a new release (and I'd prefer to use
that over the Xerces version later).

I'm at work now, but I think I checked out the HEAD, not the 1.6 branch. I
think when I checked out the 1.6 branch before, the xml-apis.jar was the
correct new version. So, maybe it was updated on the 1.6 branch but not the
head. I believe the xercesImpl.jar is correct in both cases. You'll have to
verify all this, but I just wanted to alert everyone about it.

This is offtopic from the macrodef change, but the xml-apis.jar seems to
have mysteriously reverted to a much older one. Even recently it had been
the one from Xerces-2.6.0. xercesImpl.jar *is* from 2.6.0, but
xml-apis.jar is from back in 2002. It should be 122k and is only 106k
right now. Better make sure that gets changed before the next beta.
