Anyone know of an existing auto increment build numbering task for Ant?

I looked on the online page, but the one commercial one listed leads to a dead URL.

I'm using Eclipse and looking for some way to auto inc my builds.

  <!-- Update build number -->
    <target name="inc.build" description="Increments the build number" depends="init">
    <buildnumber file="build.number"/>
    </target>

Which then give me this:

#Build Number for ANT. Do not edit!
#Sat Jul 19 00:18:23 CDT 2008
build.number=0

in the build.number file.

Now, my question is if I want to say generate a version number like say 3.0.2.${build.number}, using this number, how do I do that? =)

solved like this:

	<target name="-Build++" description="Increments the build number">
		<buildnumber file="build.number"/>
		<property name="version" value="3.0.0.${build.number}" />
	</target>
