Perhaps there is a special solution for Android that I donβt know, but besides this, you can consider the android manifest file as any other XML file β so you only need the ant task to parse the XML file and get the values ββfrom it.
ant java - -, .
. xml ANT
( http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/):
<target name="retrieveFromManifest" desciption="retrieveFromManifest">
<taskdef name="xmltask" classname="com.oopsconsultancy.xmltask.ant.XmlTask"/>
<xmltask source="${pathToAndroidManifestFile}">
<copy path="/manifest/@android:versionCode" property="androidVersionCode"/>
<copy path="/manifest/@android:versionName" property="androidVersionName"/>
<copy path="/manifest/@package" property="androidPackage"/>
</xmltask>
<echo message="Version code: ${androidVersionCode}" />
<echo message="Version name: ${androidVersionName}" />
<echo message="package: ${androidPackage}" />
</target>
EDIT:
android project build.xml, xpath " ". android sdk <import file="${sdk.dir}/tools/ant/build.xml" />, :
<taskdef name="xpath"
classname="com.android.ant.XPathTask"
classpathref="android.antlibs" />
:
<xpath input="AndroidManifest.xml"
expression="/manifest/application/@android:hasCode"
output="manifest.hasCode" default="true"/>
