Hi all!
I was wondering if there was any 'conditionnals' tasks in Ant...if not
here are the ones I'd find VERY useful :
| <ant:if test="....">
| ...
| </ant:if>
| <ant:for-each select="....">
| ...
|< /ant:for-each>
This resembles to XSLT stylesheets, for those who know.
The <ant:if> tag would allow to test for available features(for
example, which kind of XML parser is availble on the system, and so on>.
The <ant:for-each> would allow to apply a sequence of tasks to specific
list of files[or strings] (for example you want to convert each file
that match a certain criteria into syntax-highlighted html, then tidy
the html file with the w3c's tidy utility).
Cheers,
Seb.
