[Nant-users] Conditional copy

[Jo De Greef]

Title: Message

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to create a task that will copy my binaries to a seperate folder after compilation. I created a csv file with the list of files to copy and let Nant iterate through it.

Depending on the value of a property however I want to decide whether or not to copy these files.

 

I can't seem to find any documentation on how to do this exactly.

 

Here's a snippet from my build file:

 

<property name="mySwitch" value="on"/>

<foreach item="Line" in="binaries.csv" delim="," property="sourcePath,destinationPath,filename">
        <copy todir="${binaries.dir}${destinationPath}" overwrite="true">
                <fileset basedir="${string::replace(sourcePath,'[CONFIGURATION]', configuration)}">
                        <includes name="${filename}" if="test if mySwitch == 'on'" />
                </fileset>
        </copy>
</foreach>

Can someone please tell me what the exact if-statement should look like or where I can find documentation for more info?

 

TIA,
-Jo

ps. I know it's odd to perform the check inside the loop, but this will make sense when I extend the script later on.
