<!-- This must be a dependency of the top-level target, and
must precede "MakeDirIfNecessary" in the dependency list
-->
<target name="CheckDir">
<condition property="dir.makeme" >
<available ${dir.name} >
</condition>
</target>
<target name="MakeDirIfNecessary" if="dir.makeme" >
<mkdir dir=${dir.name} />
