Hi, Ben that's not possible cause the for loop i want to decorate with assert is an inner loop of another for loop The property is set in the outer loop.
Checking if property isset ain't necessary, cause if an error occurs with loadfile (setting the property) build fails automatically. I just wanted to know how to get assert working correctly if i need it Gilbert -----Original Message----- From: Burgess, Benjamin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 07, 2005 3:17 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: RE: <assert> doesn't work as expected An easier solution would be to pull the for loop into its own target and then add an if="your-property" to the target.

Now i tested the worst case, when the property hasn't been set. But the for loop runs nevertheless. The property bla has not been set = <assert name="${bla}" execute="true"> <for list="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" param="copyfile"> <sequential> <echo message="Kopiere Datei -> @{copyfile}" /> ... </sequential> </for> </assert> I also put the assert into <sequential> ... </sequential> with same result. >From what i read in the antcontrib manual, assert tests for existence of the given property ?! Any hints ? OK i may use if / then ... but assert would be shorter.
