Create a target named init which will define/set props.someprop to any value.
<target name="test1" depends="init" if="props.someprop">

                </exec>
        <target>
        
</project>

So what im trying to do is only execute if a property is true.. Obviously
some pretty simple logic but doing that in ant?

thanks
