The use of <condition> becomes tedious, it seems, for lots of conditions and lots of 
properties per condition. The <switch> task looks close, but I need to be able to set 
multiple properties per <case>:

<switch value="..."> <!--for consistency, "value" should be "property"-->
  <case value="val1">
    <property name="prop1" value="prop1.1" />
    <property name="prop2" value="prop2.1" />
  </case>
  <case value="val2">
    <property name="prop1" value="prop1.2" />
    <property name="prop2" value="prop2.2" />
  </case>
  ...
</switch>

Hope that makes sense. At that point, the clarity and length of the .xml file vs. my 
shell script is about equal.

If <switch> is enhanced that way, I'd say add it as a core task. :)

Thanks,

Donnie

I take it you don't think <condition> would do it for you? (I think I
could see it being used, but then, I haven't seen your shell-script.)  But
if you don't think it would, you might want to consider asking Matt Inger
for his <switch> task -- see:
