| Get the product version in customBuildCallbacks.xml [message #483629] |

Hi all,
In my RCP application, I want to insert dynamic values in the about
dialog. I created and added in my build an about.mappings file.
> 0=@version@
> 1=@buildId@
I then created a customBuildCallbacks.xml file where I have overriden
the build ID. It works. However, the version is not overriden. I thought
it was made by default. I then tried to modify the ...callbacks.xml but
I cannot manage to get the product version in my script.
> <target name="pre.gather.bin.parts">
> <tstamp>
> <format property="TODAY" pattern="yyyyMMdd-HHmmss" />
> </tstamp>
> <replace file="about.mappings">
> <replacefilter token="@buildId@" value="Alpha Build v${TODAY}" />
> <replacefilter token="@version@" value="${productVersion}" />
> </replace>
> </target>
${productVersion} is not a valid property, and I could not find a such
one. Is it possible to get the product version in the ...callbacks.xml file?
What I would like to do is centralize and avoid duplicates while setting
properties. More precisely, I would like to set the product version only
once (either in the ...callbacks.xml, or in the product definition, but
not in both).
Another solution could be to set @version@ in the product definition and
override it in the build. Just to mention it, I am running the product
build from Eclipse with the PDE export wizard (headless build will come
later on).
Any idea on how I can get the product version?
Regards,
Vincent Zurczak.

OK
I finally managed to do that, by using ANT tasks.
For those who would have the same issue, here is how I do that in my
CustomBuildCallbacks.xml file:
> <target name="pre.gather.bin.parts">
> <!-- Load the product file to get the product version -->
> <xmlproperty file="petals-studio.product" />
>
> <!-- Backup mappings and replace values -->
> <copy file="about.mappings" tofile="about.mappings.backup" />
> <tstamp>
> <format property="TODAY" pattern="yyyyMMdd-HHmmss" />
> </tstamp>
> <replace file="about.mappings">
> <replacefilter token="@buildId@" value="Alpha Build v${TODAY}" />
> <replacefilter token="@version@" value="${product(version)}" />
> </replace>
> </target>
