RE: echoproperties and umlauts > fixed

["Rebhan, Gilbert" <Gi...@huk-coburg.de>]

OK, finally i've found a working solution, without
hacking the echoproperties task.

If someone else runs into that ...

first step = dumping the properties to a tmpfile
<echoproperties prefix="dauftr" destfile="temmp.txt" />

second step = move the tmpfile to the final txtfile
using a filterchain

<move file="temmp.txt"
tofile="${txtpath}/${dirdate}/${projekt}_${timest}.txt">
<filterchain>
	<tokenfilter>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\u00DF" to="ss"/>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\u00C4" to="Ae"/>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\u00E4" to="ae"/>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\u00D6" to="Oe"/>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\u00F6" to="oe"/>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\u00DC" to="Ue"/>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\u00FC" to="ue"/>
	<replacestring byline="true" from="\n" to="${line.separator}"/>
	</tokenfilter>
</filterchain> 

bye4now, Gilbert

I don't know what it will do to the line breaks, but you could maybe run
a 
reverse native2ascii on the output file to "unescape" it.
