Just to inform the list, I was not able to wokout this problem using
standard Ant task, I had to write small custom Ant task to solve this
problem -- which in fact I was trying to avoid ;-)

Subject: How to store date time as a long value into a text file.


Hi all,

I have searched the archives, but I am not able to get the answer of my
question. My problem is I want to create a file say "foo" and store current
time as long value in that using Ant.

For example :

long myvar = System.currentTimeMillis();

would produce a long value of current date time, which I want to store in
"foo"

I created the file :

 <target name="create.foo">
    <touch file="foo" />
 </target>

But I am not sure, I to store date time as long value into that file.. Does
some have any idea ?

Regards,
Ravi.
