Notwithstanding the addition I'd like to see to your proposal Conor, this one particular addition would take care nicely of my using case below:
<!-- Set various properties according to the build mode --> <switch value="${buildmode}" caseinsensitive="true"> <case value="debug"> <property name="debug" value="true" /> <property name="configuration" value="Win32 Debug" /> <property name="baseconfig" value="shared.debug" /> </case> <case value="release"> <property name="debug" value="false" /> <property name="configuration" value="Win32 Release" /> <property name="baseconfig" value="shared" /> </case> <default> <fail message="Invalid buildmode: ${buildmode}" /> </default> </switch> And I think it would also take care nicely of that common use-case: <!-- Set platform-specific properties --> <target name="set_platform_properties" depends="set_platform, set_properties_windows, set_properties_linux"/> <target name="set_platform"> <condition property="os.is.windows"> <os family="windows"/> </condition> <condition property="os.is.linux"> <os name="Linux"/> </condition> </target> <target name="set_properties_windows" if="os.is.windows"> <property name="platform" value="win32"/> <property name="can.jni" value="true"/> <available property="have.gcc" file="g++.exe" filepath="${env.Path}" type="file"/> </target> <target name="set_properties_linux" if="os.is.linux"> <property name="platform" value="linux"/> <property name="can.jni" value="true"/> <available property="have.gcc" file="g++" filepath="${env.PATH}" type="file"/> </target> So YES, very much worth committing AS-IS IMHO!!! But of course, I'd also like to see the additions I wrote about earlier ;-) Thanks, --DD -----Original Message----- From: Conor MacNeill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 13, 2002 8:57 AM To: Ant Developers List Subject: Setting multiple properties in one condition I've done a quick change to allow condition to set multiple poperties.
