Hi everybody.

I have many Java projects with many separated build.xmls.  I would like =
to create a template build.xml that uses a property file for necessary =
properties.

My question.  Is it possible to call the jar task many times based on a =
set of properties?  I would like to be able to build all of my Java =
projects with one build.xml and one property file.  I am familiar with =
setting up the property file, but not sure what to do in build.xml (I =
only want to have one javac task, jar task, etc).

In a scripting language I would:

for each property (in jar section of file)
   create jar=20
next

Is this possible in Ant?

Thanks for any help.

Mike
