Here is another way...
<target name="makeArchive" depends="init">
<condition property="subDirString" value="_${subDir}"/>
<isset property="subDir"/>
</condition>
<property name="subDirString" value=""/> <!-- default, if not already set
-->
...
</target>

Hi All!
In a script where you need to respond differently to whether or not a
command line argument has been set, this is the way I am currently
responding:
<target name="subDirOn" if="subDir">
<property name="subDirString" value="_${subDir}" />
</target>
<target name="subDirOff" unless="subDir">
<property name="subDirString" value="" />
</target>
<target name="makeArchive" depends="init, subDirOn, subDirOff">
...
</target>
I do not declare a subDir property declared outside subDirOn or subDirOff
because I noticed that always triggers subDirOn.
My question?
Is there an easier way to do this? :)
Thanks for any advice!
Rob
