That is why I said in my response: "I either could not get the ones I found working, or they were just too complicated"
If you take the while task I sent source code for, and then combine that with antelope tasks to do math operations, you can write a for loop on an index with: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="loop" xmlns:bt="antlib:mytasks" xmlns:at="antlib:ise.antelope.tasks"> <target name="test"> <property name="index" value="1"/> <bt:while property="index" unless="11"> <sequential> <echo message="index: ${index}"/> <at:math result="index" operand1="${index}" operation="+" operand2="1" datatype="int"/> </sequential> </bt:while> </target> </project> Running this test, gives you: test: [echo] index: 1 [echo] index: 2 [echo] index: 3 [echo] index: 4 [echo] index: 5 [echo] index: 6 [echo] index: 7 [echo] index: 8 [echo] index: 9 [echo] index: 10 BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 0 seconds --- Shawn Castrianni ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail, including any attached files, may contain confidential and privileged information for the sole use of the intended recipient.
