For example: where, basedir: /Users/xxx/Documents/wspace/myappEar
how to use return parent directory to use like this: /Users/xxx/Documents/wspace/
To do this i've tried
<property name="workspace.dir" value="${basedir}\.." />
and does not work in my mac os.
Any Idea what is the problem?

with vanilla ant you have to use =
<property name="workspace.dir" location=".."/>
or alternatively use the Ant Plugin Flaka =
<project xmlns:fl="antlib:it.haefelinger.flaka">
<fl:echo>
working.dir => #{project.baseDir.parent}
</fl:echo>
<!-- create property for further processing -->
<fl:let>working.dir := project.baseDir.parent</fl:let>
<echo>$${working.dir} = ${working.dir}</echo>
</project>
