Hello,
I created my own "if" task that works something like this:
<if expression = "${property}" equals = "someVale">
<task name = "some oater antTask"/>
</if>
It works by comparing the value in expression to the value of equals.
If the comparison it does an ANT call to the task described in the
sub-element task. It only took me 30 mins to write the code.
In addition, you can replace equals with notEquals, greaterThan etc.
If you want the code please let me know and I will tell you where to
download it from.
