[Anthill-pro] Making the Anthill build number value availableto Ant build files?

[Rémon van Gijn]

What you seem to seek, is native to Ant's JAR task to create a manifest.mf file, and in supplying the data you can work with variables as well.

Anthill supports the anthill vars normaly, so you will be able to use $anthill.version as your buildversion when supplying the manifest contents. (there are more like that)

Read up on this on the http://ant.apache.org/manual/index.html site, and join the ant mail list. (mail to user-subscribe at ant.apache.org )

Rgds, Remon

Actually, I was potentially confusing AnthillPro version number  
(e.g., AnthillPro v 3)
with an incrementing *build* number, as in 1.1.191.  It is the  
*build* number I
am looking to stick into a property which the Ant build targets can  
use, so that
a manifest.mf file might read:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.6.2
anthill.build.number: 1.1.191
....

Thanks.
