There are two general ways to do conditional processing. One is to use the "if" or "unless" parameters on the task themselves:
<task name="copy"> <!-- Common Copying --> <...> <!-- Test Which Environment --> <condition property="dev"> <equals arg1="${envv}" = "dev"/> </condition> <condition property="uat"> <equals arg1="${envv}" = "uat"/> </condition> <condition property="prod"> <equals arg1="${envv}" = "prod"/> </condition> <!-- Call Each Environment and Attempt an Execution --> <antcall target="copy.dev"/> <antcall target="copy.uat"/> <antcall target="copy.prod"/> </target> <target name="copy.dev" if="dev"> <...> </target> <target name="copy.uat" if="uat"> <...> </target> <target name="copy.prod" if="prod"> <...> </target> The above would execute the "correct" type of copying based upon the value of the envv property. If you use AntContrib <http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/tasks/tasks/index.html>, you can simplify the logic quite a bit: <if> <equals arg1="${envv}" arg2="dev"/> <then> <copy.../> </then> <elseif> <equals arg1="${envv}" arg2="prod"/> <then> <copy .../> </then> </elseif> <equals arg1="${envv}" arg2="uat"/> <then> <copy .../> </then> </elseif> </if> -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@ant.apache.org
