reverse a string list

[messkat]

Something like this, so we don't have to code it in C#. Useful if you have to stop and start services or deploy something in a particular order.

  <script language="C#">
<code><![CDATA[
    public static void ScriptMain(Project project) 
    {
                string str = project.Properties["original.string"];
                String[] myList = str.Split(',');
                Array.Reverse(myList);
                project.Properties["original.string.reverse"] = String.Join(",", myList);
    }
  ]]>
</code>
  </script>

Yeah, I can see value here. I can see this become a function. Should probably create an "Array" function set in the process. While here, might as well add a sort function.

Committed feature. You can now use array::reverse(array, separator) function in NAntContrib to accomplish your request. Like so:

<project>
    <property name='array.orig' value='four,nine,six,two,zero,one' />
    <property name='array.reverse' value='${array::reverse(array.orig,',')}' />
    <echo message='array.reverse=${array.reverse}' /> 
</project>

This will print out: "array.reverse=one,zero,two,six,nine,four"

Thanks! You will break me of my dependency on Perl
