Try:
<property environment="chooseAnyName" />
<property name="myProperty" value="${chooseAnyName.THE_DOS_ENV_NAME}" />
eg:
<property environment="myBuildEnv" />
<property name="my_build_dest" value="${chooseAnyName.BUILD_DEST}" />
where at the cmd line I had "set BUILD_DEST=c:\mybuilddest".
Hope this helps.

Hi
I am new new to using ant. I am using the 1.4.1 version of it.
I want to know if there is a way of importing the system variables in to
the build.xml.
I have a plenty of environment variables which i want to use in my build
process.
like:
${PORT} = sol26xx2
${path_for_tools} = /root/tools/${PORT}
how should I access these variables from my build.xml?
I could not get much info on this from the manuals (might be i am
looking at the wrong place)
Can someone pls help me ?
Thanks in advance.
Kumar
