-<h2><a name="xmlproperty">XmlProperty</a></h2>
-<h3>Description</h3>
-<p>
-Loads property values from a well-formed xml file. There are no other restrictions
-than "well-formed". You can choose the layout you want. For example this XML property file:
-<pre>
- &lt;root&gt;
- &lt;properties&gt;
- &lt;foo&gt;bar&lt;/foo&gt;
- &lt;/properties&gt;
- &lt;/root&gt;
-</pre>
-is roughly equivalent to this Java property file:
-<pre>
- root.properties.foo = bar
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-By default, this load
-does <em>no</em> processing of the input. In particular, unlike the
-<a href="property.html">Property task</a>, property references
-(i.e., <samp>${foo}</samp>) are not resolved.
-<p>
-<a name="semanticAttributes">
-<h3>Semantic Attributes</h3>
-</a>
-Input processing can be enabled by using the <b>semanticAttributes</b>
-attribute. If this attribute is set to <i>true</i> (its default is
-<i>false</i>), the following processing occurs as the input XML file
-is loaded:
-<ul>
- <li>Property references are resolved.</li>
- <li>The following attributes are treated differently:
- <ul>
- <li><b>id</b>: The property is associated with the given id value.</li>
- <li><b>location</b>: The property is treated as a file location</li>
- <li><b>refid</b>: The property is set to the value of the
- referenced property.</li>
- <li><b>value</b>: The property is set to the value indicated.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li><a href="../using.html#path">Path-like Structures</a> can be defined
- by use of the following attributes:
- <ul>
- <li><b>pathid</b>: The given id is used to identify a path. The
- nested XML tag name is ignored. Child elements can be used
- (XML tag names are ignored) to identify elements of the path.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
-</ul>
-<p>
-For example, with semantic attribute processing enabled, this XML property
-file:
-<pre>
- &lt;root&gt;
- &lt;properties&gt;
- &lt;foo location="bar"/&gt;
- &lt;quux&gt;${root.properties.foo}&lt;/quux&gt;
- &lt;/properties&gt;
- &lt;/root&gt;
-</pre>
-is roughly equivalent to the following fragments in a build.xml file:
-<pre>
- &lt;property name="root.properties.foo" location="bar"/&gt;
- &lt;property name="root.properties.quux" value="${root.properties.foo}"/&gt;
-</pre>
-
-</p>
