'$$' escape syntax does not work with macros?
Hi Ant Users,
It looks like '$$' escape syntax does not work with macrodefs.
I wrote the following test:
<macrodef name="echotest">
<attribute name="message" />
<sequential>
<echo message="@{message}" />
</sequential>
</macrodef>
<target name="test">
<echo message="$${basedir}" />
<echotest message="$${basedir}" />
</target>
The output is:
test:
[echo] ${basedir} --> as expected
[echo] path/to/current/dir --> bug?
Am I using this incorrectly, or is this a bug?
Thank you,
--Vladimir

Probably along the same lines as this bug...
properties get double expanded in <assertPropertyEquals>
