You can use the "waitfor" task to wait until the specific property
has been set, it can use the "if" condition...
From the manual:
Blocks execution until a set of specified conditions become true.
This is intended to be used with the
<http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/parallel.html>parallel task
to synchronize a set of processes.
The conditions to wait for are defined in
<http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/waitfor.html#nested>nested
elements, if multiple conditions are specified, then the task will
wait until all conditions are true..
<waitfor>
<istrue value="${you.property}"/>
</waitfor>

Does anyone know how I implement a loop similar to a while loop?
I want to keep checking to see if a particular property is set in a
target, once that target is executed it can be a while before the
property is finally set, then once the property is set I can execute
another target.
I would like to know how to keep checking for a property without exiting
the ant JVM.
Thx
