propertyregex: capitalizing entire string

[Holger Rauch <ho...@heitec.de>]

Hi!

I'm trying to capitalize a string as demonstrated with the following small
sample build file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<project name="test" basedir="." default="main">
    <taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties"/>
    <target name="main">
        <property name="foo" value="blah/blubber/foo"/>
        <propertyregex property="FOO" input="${foo}" regexp="[a-z]"
replace="[A-Z]" global="true"/>
        <echo>foo = ${foo}</echo>
        <echo>FOO = ${FOO}</echo>
    </target>
</project>

The output I get however is that each lowercase letter is converted
literally to "[A-Z]":

main:
     [echo] foo = blah/blubber/foo
     [echo] FOO =
[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z]/[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z]/[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z]

Is case conversion possible with the propertyregex task from ant-contrib? If
so, which adjustments do I have to make?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Greetings,

	Holger
