${toString:lib.path.ref}

[Raja Nagendra Kumar <Na...@tejasoft.com>]

Hi, 

in the javac description at 
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/javac.html, I see a special syntax in
the property ${toString:lib.path.ref}

is this corr etc.. if yes, is there a similar way to have the toLowerCase
value of the property by saying 
${toLower:lib.path.ref} or by ${String.toLowerCase:lib.path.ref}

We are actively looking to use some special syntax like this instead of
groove kind of scripts to enable the use of any Java Class and its methods
with ant properties.

Could any one suggest any documents related to such as special synax for
manupulating ant properties.
The 1.7.1 does not seem to understand the syntax ${toString:lib.path.ref}...

Any leads to this regard would help.

you may use the AntXtras task suite =
http://antxtras.sourceforge.net/index.html

see =
http://antxtras.sourceforge.net/AntXtras/docs/userguide/valueuris/

there are even pipes =

"...
You can pipeline the results of value uris into each other using a single "|"
delimiter between uri scheme markers like: $var:filelist|$stripws:|$uppercase:
..."
