Trailing slash in property location eaten

           Summary: Trailing slash in property location eaten
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Build Process
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: eric@timebytes.com
                CC: eric@timebytes.com


If I specify a property location with a trailing slash (i.e. <property 
name="Dir2" location="/usr/tmp/"/>) the trailing slash is removed by Ant.

This doesn't happen with property value.

Here's a test case:


$ cat build.xml
<project name="testslashes" default="" basedir=".">
    <property name="Dir1" value="/usr/tmp/"/>
    <property name="Dir2" location="/usr/tmp/"/>
    <property name="Dir3" value="/usr/tmp"/>
    <property name="Dir4" location="/usr/tmp"/>

    <target name="init">
        <exec executable="echo">
            <arg line="'this should have a trailing slash: ' '${Dir1}'"/>
        </exec>
        <exec executable="echo">
            <arg line="'this should have a trailing slash: ' '${Dir2}'"/>
        </exec>
        <exec executable="echo">
            <arg line="'this should not have a trailing slash: ' '${Dir3}'"/>
        </exec>
        <exec executable="echo">
            <arg line="'this should not have a trailing slash: ' '${Dir4}'"/>
        </exec>
    </target>
</project>

$ ant init
Buildfile: build.xml

init:
     [exec] this should have a trailing slash:  /usr/tmp/
     [exec] this should have a trailing slash:  /usr/tmp
     [exec] this should not have a trailing slash:  /usr/tmp
     [exec] this should not have a trailing slash:  /usr/tmp
