path/to/dir to path_to_dir

[Robert Mark Bram <re...@optusnet.com.au>]

Hi All!

I am receiving a path through the command line as a property in my Ant 
script.

I am using the property as a path, but I also want to use it as a name, 
meaning that I want path/to/dir to appear as path_to_di..

Is there a way to do this?

Any advice would be most welcome!

Rob

Look at propertyregex from ant-contrib.
It can create a new property for you from the old one,
doing some regular expression replacements
(such as convert all slashes to underscores)
