This works.
<project default="invalid">
<target name="invalid">
<property name="testit" value="" />
<antcall target="test1" inheritall="true" >
<param name="testit" value="true"/>
</antcall>
<antcall target="test2" inheritall="true" />
</target>
<target name="test1">
<echo message="in test1 and value of testit is: ${testit}"/>
</target>
<target name="test2" unless="testit">
<echo message="in test2"/>
<echo message="value of testit is: ${testit}"/>
</target>
</project>
C:\IBM>ant -f /temp/throw.xml
Buildfile: C:\temp\throw.xml
invalid:
test1:
[echo] in test1 and value of testit is: true
test2:

Hi! I've found that my unless= is somewhat useless when using <antcall>.
Here's a repro for what I'm trying to do:
<project name="test" default="testIt">
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml"/>
<target name="testIt">
<antcall target="test1" inheritall="true" />
<antcall target="test2" inheritall="true" />
</target>
<target name="test1">
<property name="testit" value="true"/>
<echo message="in test1 and value of testit is: ${testit}"/>
</target>
<target name="test2" unless="testit">
<echo message="in test2"/>
<echo message="value of testit is: ${testit}"/>
</target>
</project>
And the results that I'm sure you anticipate as you understand how antcall
works:
[me@myMachine]$ ant -f test.xml
Buildfile: test.xml
testIt:
test1:
[echo] in test1 and value of testit is: true
test2:
[echo] in test2
[echo] value of testit is: ${testit} BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 0
seconds
My actual antcall is in a for loop using a list to call targets that start with
the same word, like so:
<for list="${build.apps} param="app">
<sequential>
<antcall target="build@{app}"/>
</sequential>
</for>
Can anyone give me a better methodology for achieving the results I'm after?
Thanks,
Eric
