I seem to be having some problems with the "if" attribute on a <target>.
I would like to execute the <target> if a specific property evaluates to
"true".  I have the following:
        <target name="db.init" if="${property::get-value(sql.init)}"
depends="db.create.tables, db.create.procs"/>

try

if="${property::get-value('sql.init')}"
you need to reference the property by name.

I then receive the following error message:
        D:\Development\Projects\Library\Build\library.build(22,3):

        Expression: ${property::get-value(sql.init)}

How do I get a target to execute based on a value of a specific
property?

I'm using Nant 0.85.


Thanks
