ANT : How to get User, OS name and Environment properties

Here is what you need to do if you want to fetch below in/using ANT:

a. Logged user - built-in property
b. Machine OS name - built-in property
c. Environment properties - ANT provides a property task which has an attribute environment. Thus if you specify the task with environment="myenv" you will be able to access OS-specific environment variables via property names "myenv.PATH" or "myenv.TERM".


Below is a sample ant script.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

<project basedir="." default="systeminfo">

  <target name="systeminfo">

    <property environment="my_env" />

    <echo>

      User is ${user.name}

      OS Name is ${os.name}     

      ANT_HOME is set to ${my_env.ANT_HOME}

    </echo>

  </target>

</project>

Output:

BuildFile: build.xml systeminfo

[echo]

[echo] User is nadimwarsi

[echo] OS Name is Windows 10 Enterprise

[echo] ANT_HOME is set to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7

[echo] BUILD SUCCESSFUL

SOA 12c : Setting up Environment variables on Unix/Windows

Generally before we begin our local installation or execute commands on Windows or Unix/Linux systems we should setup the environment variables so that we do not face any issues.

In this post we will learn how to setup the environment variables.

1.       Windows (one-time activity):

a.       Right click on MyComputer/This PC > Properties

b.       On left pane click on ‘Advanced system settings’

c.       On System Properties pop up click on ‘Advanced’ tab

d.       Click on button ‘Environment Variables’

e.       Under System variables box, click on New

f.        Insert Variable name and Variable values as below

 

g.       Add above variables to ‘Path’ variable by selecting on Path and clicking on Edit

h.       Add  %JAVA_HOME%\bin

i.     Apply and Save.

j.        Open command-prompt, type echo %JAVA_HOME% to validate.

 

1.       Unix/Linux (on every login):

a.       Login to box

b.       Identify dir path for variable

c.       Run command to set environment variable for JAVA_HOME like below

                            export JAVA_HOME=/java/jdk/jdk1.8.0_131
 

d.       Run command echo %JAVA_HOME% to validate

Note: Paths may differ based on how installation has been done.

If you want to set path permanently on Linux box, edit you ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile and add the export commands.
