<ant> with nested <property> ?
Or use of <macrodef>s?

________________________________
The reason I'm not using ant is that :-
1. My main build.xml script calls the component.xml script
numerous times.
2. Each time the component.xml script is called, the variable
'component' needs to be set to something different.
3. Component.xml is generic therefore don't want to hard code
anything variables in
4. Once variable set, can't be changed.
Honestly, there is some underlying logic behind all of this.

Why not use <ant> ?
