+<h2><a name="loadfile">LoadFile</a></h2>
+<h3>Description</h3>
+<p>
+Specialization of <a href="loadresource.html">loadresource</a> that
+works on files exclusively and provides a srcFile attribute for
+convenience. Unless an encoding is specified, the encoding of the
+current locale is used.
+</p>
+<p>If the resource content is empty (maybe after processing a filterchain)
+the property is not set.</p>
+
+
+<h3>Parameters</h3>

+The LoadFile task supports nested <a href="../Types/filterchain.html">
+FilterChain</a>s.
+
+<h3>Examples</h3>
+<pre> &lt;loadfile property="message"
+ srcFile="message.txt"/&gt;
+</pre>
+Load file message.txt into property "message"; an <tt>&lt;echo&gt;</tt>
+can print this. This is identical to
+<pre> &lt;loadresource property="message"&gt;
+ &lt;file file="message.txt"/&gt;
+ &lt;/loadresource&gt;
+</pre>
+</p>
+
+<pre> &lt;loadfile property="encoded-file"
+ srcFile="loadfile.xml"
+ encoding="ISO-8859-1"/&gt;
+</pre>
+Load a file using the latin-1 encoding
+
+<pre> &lt;loadfile
+ property="optional.value"
+ srcFile="optional.txt"
+ failonerror="false"/&gt;
+</pre>
+Load a file, don't fail if it is missing (a message is printed, though)
+
+<pre> &lt;loadfile
+ property="mail.recipients"
+ srcFile="recipientlist.txt"&gt;
+ &lt;filterchain&gt;
+ &lt;<a href="../Types/filterchain.html#striplinebreaks">striplinebreaks</a>/&gt;
+ &lt;/filterchain&gt;
+ &lt;/loadfile&gt;
+</pre>
+Load a property which can be used as a parameter for another task (in this case mail),
+merging lines to ensure this happens.
+
+<pre> &lt;loadfile
+ property="system.configuration.xml"
+ srcFile="configuration.xml"&gt;
+ &lt;filterchain&gt;
+ &lt;<a href="../Types/filterchain.html#expandproperties">expandproperties</a>/&gt;
+ &lt;/filterchain&gt;
+ &lt;/loadfile&gt;
+</pre>
+Load an XML file into a property, expanding all properties declared
+in the file in the process.
