Subject: Looping in ant
I recognize that ant may not be the right place to do this, but I now
find myself in a situation where some sort of looping construct would be
very convenient
something like
<loop until="${condition}" >
... do tasks
<sleep...>
</loop>
My use case for this is to run some test repeatedly at timed intervals.
I realize that the "until" part of this might raise some immutability
hackles, but I would even be able to live without that, just an
unconditional loop.
Is there a way to do this? I don't see one. I suspect someone might
have raised this before it was rejected. If so, can someone give me a
brief update as to why it has been rejected?
