You can't do it with the stock Ant Contrib for loop...

I've written something that does just that...using Ant Contrib - but its not a perfect solution. You could conceivably do so scripting...

Or, there is another project: http://antxtras.sourceforge.net/AntXtras/download.html

I believe that library has exactly the for-loop construct you want - meaning min/max/step values (ie loop from 0 - 60 stepping by 1)... I've not used it but know someone posts here who has mentioned it before...

Hi,

I am using the below codes  to get for loop working

<project default="test" basedir=".">

     <taskdef name="for" classname="net.sf.antcontrib.logic.ForTask" 
classpath="lib/ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar" />


     <target name="test">

           <echo message="The first five letters of the alphabet are:"/>
           <for list="a,b" param="test">
                 <sequential>
               <echo>Letter @{test}</echo>
                       </sequential>
           </for>
     </target>
</project>

However, if I want to iterate 60 times, how can I do it? (I don't want to put 
60 characters in the list)

Thanks,

Diana Huang
