Parsing a file name and extract a substring with ant ?

[Yves Leung-Tack <yv...@laposte.net>]

Hi,

Is it possible for ant to get a filename , parsing it
and get a substring of that filename for using it ??

What I want to do exactly in build.xml is:
        if  a file with *QAE.tar.gz exists then
          parse the that filename to get the substring from index 4 to 9
          use that substring
        else
          do other things
      
     

Thanks

You should be able to do this using pathconvert with a
regexp mapper.
