Hello Marcelo,

setting an environment variable from ant is possible using the exec task. Using 
a nested element (see the doc). The new environment variable is only visible 
for the one particular program started by the exec task.

similarly, the <java/> task can set env vars, this only when you fork java apps.

If you need an env var to be visible to all the <exec/> and <java/> invocations 
started by an ant build, you need to set this env var before starting ant, for 
instance in a wrapper script.

Regards,

Antoine
