DO NOT REPLY [Bug 49514] New: property task incorrectly sets
properties when prefix is used
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49514
Summary: property task incorrectly sets properties when prefix
is used
Product: Ant
Version: 1.8.0
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: regression
Priority: P2
Component: Core tasks
AssignedTo: notifications@ant.apache.org
ReportedBy: andrew.black@roguewave.com
If using an <property file="" prefix=""> task, and a property was previously
defined that is also defined in the property file, the value created using the
prefix will be a copy of the previously defined property, rather than the value
from the file. A test case is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="bug-test" default="test" basedir=".">
<target name="test">
<property name="foo" value="bar"/>
<echo file="test.properties" message="foo=baz"/>
<property file="test.properties" prefix="old."/>
<fail message="Incorrect value for old.foo: got '${old.foo}', expected
'baz'">
<condition><not><equals arg1="${old.foo}" arg2="baz"/></not></condition>
</fail>
</target>
</project>
This test case succeeds with Ant 1.7.1, but fails with 1.8.0.
While a partial workaround exists (don't define properties in your file that
you'll import), this can pose problems when you attempt to load two different
versions of a property file for comparison. This comparison is useful if
you're attempting to short-circuit an expensive action, based on metadata
stored in the property file.

Works in 1.7.1, 1.8.1, and 1.8.2 after the fix of bug #49373; only fails in
1.8.0.

This appears to be related to bug 40561, but the behavior was working as
expected in a versions newer than 1.6.5.
