Set property value via Java

Is there a method for setting a property's value to the return value of a Java program?

I have a Java program that executes an XPath query and returns a string. How can I create a property from this returned string?

Thanks.

no method but an attribute of the <java> task, see Ant manual =

http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/java.html

outputproperty / resultproperty / errrorproperty

beside that, there are two methods for setting properties, if you' ve
have written
an own ant task or want to use the Ant api with script task =

setProperty()
setNewProperty()
