can we include any type of loop in the ant build.xml file?

I have to generate one build.xml file that performs the same tasks for =
various modules. Each time i have to add one module or delete one module =
I have to remove targets from the build.xml file or add targets in the =
build file. Targets have all the functionalities same but only the =
module name changed. If I can add one loop in the build.xml file that =
will repeat the same targets for all the modules then it will greatly =
help me.

Please look at the targets below: both are same but only the name =
"staff" is replaced with "provisioning" in the second target. Can I =
directly generate these types of modules?

<target name=3D"make-staff-jar" if=3D"staff.present">
   <jar jarfile=3D"${appjars.server.dir}/staff-ejb.jar">
     <fileset dir=3D"${build.classes.dir}">
   <include name=3D"**/staff/**/*"/>
        </fileset>
  <fileset dir=3D"${build.ejb-meta.dir}/staff"/>
    </jar>
</target>

<target name=3D"make-provisioning-jar" if=3D"provisioning.present">
   <jar jarfile=3D"${appjars.server.dir}/provisioning-ejb.jar">
     <fileset dir=3D"${build.classes.dir}">
   <include name=3D"**/provisioning/**/*"/>
        </fileset>
  <fileset dir=3D"${build.ejb-meta.dir}/provisioning"/>
    </jar>
</target>

Thanks in advance.
