Perhaps something such as
<j:choose>
<j:when test="${systemScope['os.name'].startsWith('Windows')}">
<j:set var="isWindows" value="true"/>
<j:set var="isUnix" value="false"/>
<ant:echo>The operating system is Windows</ant:echo>
</j:when>
<j:otherwise>
<j:set var="isWindows" value="false"/>
<j:set var="isUnix" value="true"/>
<ant:echo>The operating system is Unix</ant:echo>
</j:otherwise>
</j:choose>

Subject: Determining current OS
I am trying to convert an Ant script that I have that needs to know
which OS it is currently running on. I took the statements
condition property="isUnix">
<os family="unix"/>
</condition>
<condition property="isWindows">
<os family="windows"/>
</condition>
and put them in my maven.xml as
<ant:condition property="isUnix">
<ant:os family="unix"/>
</ant:condition>
<ant:condition property="isWindows">
<ant:os family="windows"/>
</ant:condition>
But when I run, neither property is being set.
I've scanned the plugin.jelly files and none are using this condition.
Is there a better way to determine what
OS is being used?
The reason for the test is that I need to run the Ant task pathconvert
which needs to know the target OS.
