Thank you for your help. Now, what if I want to test for a subdirectory of the 
directory specified by the property?
I want to do something like:

        <if test="${directory::exists('${build.dir}/ConsumerWeb/bin')}" >
            <echo message="${build.dir}/ConsumerWeb/bin already exists..."/>
      </if>

Where the subdirectory is appended to the property. This doesn't seem to work as I 
have coded above.

Kevin,

You don't need to surround property names with braces in expressions :

       <if test="${directory::exists(build.dir)}" >
            <echo message="${build.dir} already exists..."/>
        </if>

Hope this helps,

Gert

What is the correct syntax for testing if a directory exists? I have tried:

       <if test="${directory::exists('${build.dir}') = false}" >
    <echo message="Making ${build.dir}..."/>
        </if>
        <if test="directory::exists('${build.dir}') = true" >
    <echo message="${build.dir} already exists..."/>
        </if>

Both seem to be incorrect.

Thank you for your help.

Kevin
