Property resolution in a task

In Cocoon we have an Ant task for patching our config files.

I'd like to extend this to be able to expand properties found in the 
patch files.

How can I, in a Task, expand properties within a String?

For example, if I have a string that says "${local.mounttable}", I want 
to replace it with the value of local.mounttable that has been taken 
from our property file.

Thanks for any help.

Regards, Upayavira
