Hi all,
I was wondering if anybody could provide some insight in how I could
conditionaly "echo" a message. Basically, what I would like to do is echo a
message if the target was called from within the same build script
(build.xml), but not if it was called from an external source. I was
thinking I could pass in a property when I make external calls to set the
level of verbosity to off.

ie:
        <ant dir=".." target="my.target" inheritall="false">
                <property name="verbose" value="false" />
        </ant>

However, I'm not sure how I can write my echo tasks to handle this
conditional property. I'd really like to avoid having to write two separate
targets for every 'echo' that is based on the if/unless conditions if
possible.

../build.xml:

<property name="verbose" value="true"/>

<target name="my.target">
        <echo message="status report 1"/>
</target>



thx,
d.
