Question

So I have something like code below

<target name="testIt">
    <property name="appname" value="ApplicationOne"/>
    <property name="ApplicationOne-serveraddress" value="http://ApplicationOne.com"></property>
    <property name="ApplicationTwo-serveraddress" value="http://ApplicationTwo.com"></property>
    <echo message="${${appname}-serveraddress}"></echo>
</target>

Is there a way to do it? obviously, this doesn’t work

This blog post about using antlib props in ant helped me with Nesting of Braces basically you have to download the jar and include

<project xmlns:props="antlib:org.apache.ant.props">
  <typedef uri="antlib:org.apache.ant.props"
    resource="org/apache/ant/props/antlib.xml"
    classpath="ant-props-1.0Alpha.jar"/>      
 <propertyhelper>
  <props:nested />
</propertyhelper>

Dont forget the xmlns. I downloaded the jar here
