Ant properties are generally immutable. Why not call each of your compile tasks with <antcall> and pass this variable as a <param> of this <antcall>?

Org (E-mail) Cc: Subject: Setting Environment Variables I need to set a system environment variable before a task. i.e FooVariable must be set to "foovalue" from the build xml. I know that i can pass env variables to executables thru the exec -env nested tasks, but i wanna update this system variable before each VB or VC++ compile task.
