redirect file output to console

[Josh Lubell <lu...@nist.gov>]

Is there an easy way to cause output from an Ant task that is normally 
written to a file to be written to the console instead? Specifically I 
would like XML transformation result of an xslt task to appear in the 
Ant output rather than in an output file.

Thank you,
Josh

I found an answer to my question: use the concat task with a nested fileset.

Example:

<xslt in="${instance}" style="${stylesheet}" out="${xslt.result}"
      extension=".txt">
</xslt>
<concat>
      <fileset file="${xslt.result}"/>
</concat>
