Is it possible -- Calling ant user defined parameter?

[Ayse Muge]

Is it possible that the using ant with some user defined parameter?

For example, I wanna give my StarTeam version control system build label as a parameter and then corresponding target can use this parameter in stcheckout task for its label attribute.
My build label is build1001 and then I wanna use it in command line as follows:

ant build1001

'build1001' pass as parameter to stcheckout label attribute.

Is it possible? I can't find the way...

Hi Ayse,

I am not too sure about passing parameter to ant, but i think you can use input task of ant. I hope it will solve your purpose.
