Hi all, I have been working on conditional structures and loop structures on existing workflow managers for a long time. For this purpose I have implemented two simple examples for if-type and switch-type cases (examples are attached). In these examples my program is simply downloading a file. If that file does not exist in the first web address it tries another address. However, I could not implement a loop structure for that. In the loop case the program should try the same address until the file exists. Actually I know this is not a reasonable and useful scenario but I just want to show whether a conditional-loop scenario can be implemented in Ant. Can u suggest me anything to implement that example. Any help is appreciated.
The ant-contrib project is providing conditional tasks which may help, but if you want to have your own syntax and the very specific url availability as a condition (like you wrote), maybe using a script (using scriptdef for example) would be a good fit. Xavier Thanks.
