There is an <input> task that you can use to prompt the user. See
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/input.html.
As for concatenating user input with ".home", you can do
<property name="finalValue" value="${userInput}.home" />

I am trying to build an and build process where the user will run ant
and it will prompt them for the project. The projects are held in the
build.properties file.
They look like this.
project1.home=/my/project/dev1
project2.home=/my/project/dev2
There are other things in the file but this is all the user will ever
edit. What i want is for the users to type in project2 and the ant
script will checkout from subversion that project and put it in the path
for project2.home.
Is this possible with ant? I would need to append the .home to the end
of the project name so i can get it's home directory.
Thanks.
