Editing an XML file using ant
Hi Friends,
I want to add some extra mime-mappings to an web.xml file in the deployment
environment using my build script.I am trying using "XMLTASK" but for some
reason it's not working. Is there any other way using ANT to accomplish this
task.
This is what i am trying with XMLTask:
<xmltask source="${dest}/web.xml" dest="${dest}/web.xml" >
<insert path="/web-app/mime-mapping[1]" position="before" file="
insert.xml">
</insert>
</xmltask>
It just copies the source web.xml to destination and does not appends
anything.
Thanks
Mick

It is not deprecated. The Style task (which is the same thing) is
deprecated.

It is a core task, but I have heard before that you need the optional
jar to make the xslt task work (I have always used the full distro so I
have never run into the problem)

Thanks for the advice..i am trying to do that but it's a deprecated task and
i am getting ClassNotFound exception for
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.TreXLiaison
I think,I need an optional.jar file...can you tell me where to download it
from,i cannot find it anywhere on net.
Thanks

You could use the XSLT task with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="mime-mapping[1]">
<xsl:apply-templates select="document('insert.xml')/*"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
