Currently the "right" way may be to use the script-task in a way similar to
this (I have not checked this for validity, maybe the if-statement must be
corrected):
<project name="myProject" ...
<script language="javascript"> <![CDATA[
var prop1 = myProject.getProperty('property1');
var prop2 = myProject.getProperty('property2');
if (prop1 == null || prop2 == null)
{
myProject.setProperty('propertyMissing', 'true');
}
]]></script>
And then use
<target name="myTarget" if ="propertyMissing">
<fail message="You have not defined a required property"/>
