Using ANT properties in Jenkins build job

问题:

I'm trying to exec a script from my ANT-task. This script does some svn-stuff and should then set the outputproperty svndiff:

<target name="svn-diff">
    <exec executable="/usr/local/rbenv/shims/ruby" outputproperty="svndiff">
        <arg line="${source.dir}/changeparse.rb" />
    </exec>
</target>

I want to use this svndiff property to send it via email in a jenkins post-build-step to some recipients, but i cannot seem to use it in Jenkins. The mails i receive from this only have $svndiff as content.

Don't know if this helps, but in the top of my ANT-script i declare this property with

<property name="svndiff" value=""/>

Another approach i did was to modify Jenkins' environment variable array, by declaring my property as env.svndiff and setting the outputproperty of the exec target respectivly but this didn't help either.

As it seems there is no solution for my problem, so i built a workarounded for it.

I put the output of my ruby script into a file, and send the file via email (as attachment) to a recipient list.
