extracting revision number using ant-contrib regexp
I'm using ant-contrib's propertyregex task to try to extract a revision number from the repository without making any changes to a sandbox, so svn up is no good...
I'm using this for the regexp attribute to parse the output of svn info:
regexp="Path: ([^\.]*)\n
URL: ([^\.]*)\n
Repository Root: ([^\.]*)\n
Repository UUID: ([^\.]*)\n
Revision: ([^\.]*)\n
Node Kind: ([^\.]*)\n
Last Changed Author: ([^\.]*)\n
Last Changed Rev: ([^\.]*)\n
Last Changed Date: ([^\.]*)\n"
now just doing select="\5" should get the revision number but all I get returned is "${rev}" the name of the property I am storing it in, not the value.
Is my regexp wrong?
