           Summary: optional delimiter attribute  to the Replace task
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: shespelt@bear.com


When using the replacefilterfile attribute, it would be handy to be able to
specify what delimiter should be used. Unfortunately, someone here has already
created a good number of config files using the pattern  #property.name# so one
would have to first create the temporary property file argument to
replacefilterfile with the delimeters appended/prepended. I've made a simple
change that allows for an optional attribute (default value "@@") to do this
prepending/appending when retrieving the token from the set of properties loaded
from the replacefilterfile file.
This way, a property file could be used as is and allow the Replace task to
create the 'correct' pattern.
Here is the diff:

<                     replaceFilter.setToken(token);

>                         replaceFilter.setToken(token);
>                     } else {
>                         // this allows for our replacefilterfile to be a
simple property file
>                         replaceFilter.setToken( this.delimiter + token +
this.delimiter );
>                     }
