Executing Tasks

[Ronnie Phelps]

Using ant, How can I conditionally execute a task?

[Lewin Chan]

<task name="mytask" depends="init" if="this.property.set">
  <echo message="Executing mytask"/>
</task>
<task name="my.other.task" depends="init" unless="this.property.set">
  <echo message="Executing my other task"/>
</task>

Where previously in your "init" task you may have done something like

<task name="init">
  <property name="this.property.set" value="true"/>
</task>

which means that my task is executed but not my other task.
