I would suspect that it'd be far easier to handle the checking of
number of arguments in the script that invokes ant rather than doing it
within Ant itself. You could then know which target to call in what
order.
As for the first, code it and try. I would but my Ant had a little too
much Raid.
<target name="main">
<echo message="${arg1} + ${arg2}" />
</target>

Subject: trying to check 3 command-line arguments passed to my build
Hi everyone..
first of all, thank you for all your help.
second....
The follow command line arguments are correct in order
to by passed to my build file?
ant -Darg1=data1,arg2=data2
or do I need to put a "-D" every time I want to send
the next argument??
How do I check if someone only put 1 or 2 or none
of the arguments in order to execute a target, is is
correct in this way?
<target name="verify">
<condition property="jmptarget" value="arquitect">
<equals check="${arg1}"/>
</condition>
<condition property="jumptarget" value="security">
<equals check="${arg1}"/>
</condition>
<condition property="jumptarget" value="colect">
<equals check="${arg1}"/>
</condition>
</target>
<!-- if is arquitect GO -->
<target name="arquitect" depends="verify"
if="jmptarget"/>
.....
</target>
<target name="security" depends="verify"
unless="jmptarget"/>
.....
</target>
<!-- it wasn't arquitect, but is not security
its colect -->
<target name="colect" depends="verify"
unless="jmptarget"/>
.....
</target>
<target name="jumtarget" depends="verify"
unless="jmptarget"/>
.....
</target>
I don't know if a made myself clear??
the thing is..
I have 3 modules, inside this modules a compilation
could be take for one of them. e.g.
Security has
util
mgr
ght
Architec as
util
mgr
ght
if some one put:
ant -Darg1=Security,arg2=util
the XML has to check what submodule has to compile
(javac), but if they only put:
ant -Darg1=Architec
All the modules has to be compiled in the order
wich appeared, but Architec depens on Security
And the last option could be.
ant -buildfile test.xml
and all the modules has to be compiled with their
submodules.
Could anyone could help me pleasee??!!! just show me
the way please. Here at my office want to develop this
but, this is my second day on it, I'm just learning
it, also I have the background from Microsoft, can you
believe that??
Thanks in advance. Hope not to boder you at all
VES
