What type of replacement? You can do a filter on strings like
@VERSION@, @DATE@, @FOO@, or whatever you want via filtersets and mappers when you copy. For example, I have some configuration files. They're called *.properties.template, and I replace the @xxx@ strings with values from a deploy.properties file and remove the *.template suffix. The filterset replaces the @xxx@ tokens with the correct values while the mapper renames the file by removing the *.template suffix: <!-- Copy the configuration files that don't contain tokens --> <copy todir="${local.jboss.home}/server/${jboss.instance}" verbose="${copy.verbose.flag}"> <fileset dir="${jboss.install.home}/jbdev1"> <exclude name="**/*.template"/> </fileset> </copy> <!-- Copy the configurable files and replace any tokens --> <copy todir="${local.jboss.home}/server/${jboss.instance}" overwrite="true" verbose="${copy.verbose.flag}"> <fileset dir="${jboss.install.home}/jbdev1"> <include name="**/*.template"/> </fileset> <mapper type="glob" from="*.template" to="*"/> <filterset begintoken="@" endtoken="@"> <filter token="path_to_server_dir" value="${local.jboss.home}/server/${jboss.instance}"/> <filtersfile file="${deploy.properties.file}"/> </filterset> </copy> Is this what you're looking for?

Thanks for the answer.
I need to replace @token@ with <aa><bb></bb></aa>. But the ANT engine tells me that I can't use '<' or '>'. Please advice.

You have to escape those with "<" and ">" for "<" and ">" respectively. The build.xml file is a XML file, and in XML the greater and less than signs have special meanings. Another possibility is to use a *.properties file for the replacement string. Imagine having a file called "replace.properties" with this line. token=<aa><bb></bb></aa> This is legal in properties files and should work when reading it with ant. You can use a <filtersfile> as my example above shows. In the above example, I have a file called "${deploy.properties.file}" that contains the tokens I want to filter. > > Please advice. > > Thanks. > > -----Original Message----- > From: David Weintraub [mailto:qazwart@...] > Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2008 8:27 PM > To: Ant Users List > Subject: Re: Replace string in file > > What type of replacement?
