There is nothing special about build.properties file. Just the textual
name-value pairs, someting like:

src=src
build=bin
deploy=/usl/local/tomcat/webapps

and so on. You can use these pairs as parameters for some standard
build.xml file, instead of scattering them around the XML.


Did you mean maybe an example of build.XML file?

Hi,

Thank you for response. Actually I have written one build.xml and build.
properties file but unfortunately it is not executing fine.
Build script is not compiling the actual source code and secondly it is
creating the directory as ${output}\classess instead of classess.

Please find the attached build.xml and build. properties file and the
exact output.

Request you all to please have a look and guide/help me

Regards
Irfan.

You try to read the build.properties file:

<property file="${output}/build.properties"/>

from the location that is unknown, because ${output} is not defined at
the moment the properties file is being read.

If your build.properties file is in the current directory, just use

<property file="build.properties"/>.

A properties file is a standard Java properties file...

Basically,

name = value

pairs ;)
