How to get the count of the number of lines in a file using ANT
I have a txt file and would like to get the count of the number of lines in that file, and then store that count into a property.
I mean something equivalent to the unix command:
cat file_name.txt | wc -l
Can this be done using an existing ANT task?
Thanks,
-Saladin

All right. You win, we believe you. Now, can you show us a coding
example. I can see how you can use tokens for grep and sed, but not
for "wc -l".

It is just that examples speak louder than words.
It a manual saids that it is easy to do something, and
then not show how to do it, and the reader cannot figure
it out easily, it is quite annoying.

How not, Peter?
Anyway, I didn't have time to put together the example
earlier. Here goes:
<resourcecount>
<tokens><!-- default tokenizer is a line tokenizer
-->
<file file="file_name.txt" />
</tokens>
</resourcecount>

Ok, that looks interesting. But I seem to lack the requisite
imagination. :-)
I could not find an example that uses the resources in the ant-book
(Thanks Steve L) either.
I was thinking along the lines of
<load file="log.txt" property="count">
<filterchain>
<linetokenizer tokens>
</filterchain>
</load>
