Use properties file and System variables.

[Michael Remijan <Mi...@solocup.com>]

Hi,

  I've got what think is a simple question.  Would like to use a properties file but I want to define my properties by using system variables.  I can do this easily enough inside the build.xml with:

<property environment="env" />
<property name="foo" value="${env.FOO}" />

but how do I do this with a properties file?

It probably won't be as clean as you might hope but I
think you could do this with ant-contrib's
<propertycopy> task.
