i tried that on Win2000, with jdk 1.5.0_11 ant 1.6.5
<project name="project" default="main">
<target name="depends">
<tstamp>
<format property="touch.time" pattern="mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm aa"
offset="7" unit="week"/>
</tstamp>
</target>
<target name="main" depends="depends">
<echo>
Antversion == ${ant.version}
Today == ${TODAY}
$${touch.time} == ${touch.time}
</echo>
</target>
</project>
and it gave me =
Buildfile: J:\eclipse_3_2\workspace\AntTest\tstamp.xml
depends:
main:
[echo] Antversion == Apache Ant version 1.6.5 compiled on June 2 2005
[echo] Today == April 27 2007
[echo]
[echo] ${touch.time} == 19/15/2007 09:19 PM
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 156 milliseconds
hm, strange 19/15/2007 ??
i think you meant something like =
<tstamp>
<format property="touch.time" pattern="MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm aa"
offset="-7" unit="day"/>
</tstamp>
or
<tstamp>
<format property="touch.time" pattern="MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm aa"
offset="7" unit="day"/>
</tstamp>
similar to the example from manual :
<tstamp>
<format property="touch.time" pattern="MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm aa"
offset="-5" unit="hour"/>
</tstamp>
but that gives him the actual date minus | plus 7 days.

I thought the original poster was asking for
"...
the next weeks start date and last week start date
..."
because of that i suggested the <script> solution, where
he can choose, whether the start day of week = sunday or
monday.
Otherwise the </tstamp> would fit of course.
So he should provide some more details ;-)
