Maybe you want, although it's not really the same...?

The other way would be to use ant-contrib's if. Which I think is ugly.
I'm trying to do with ANT anything like:
If exist a file (file.txt)
Exec file.bat
End if

I'd just write a custom task for these kind of things. Then you're done within
an hour, taking Hofstadters law into account.

Yes I tried it, and once more right now. Doesn't work. Two possible sources of
confusion:
- Version issue, I use 1.7.0, but the one that's shipped with eclipse.
- The director

Great! Thanks. Guess that was the only thing I didn't try...

Hey,
I tried several ways (space separated, semicolon-separated) to add more than
one directory to the -lib option, somehow I cannot get this working
(-diagnostics doesn't list my jars..). Thankful for any tips.

Hey,
I'm trying to figure out a way how to read a text file line by line.
Then for each read line I'd like to invoke a macro with that line's contents as
an argument. I can't find a better whay than using ant-contribs math+var tasks
to count the number of lines read so far. With that I can use

Hey,
I have the following snippet in my ant file:
This is the first line A
This is the second line B
When I look at the build file, after the A, I see a CR LF.
When I look at the file that ant echoed to, I only see a LF.
What might be going on here?

This hint lead me to AntExtra, which provides a
task that accepts makro names.

Well I assume it would be easy to write a contributed task
similar to the one that I describe above. The only thing I'd
need to know is how to execute a macro with a given name from
within a Task implementation...

Of course this is a possibility,
This approach would make the macros obsolete. Instead I
would move the macro code into the targets you mention, and could do
This is actually how my build file currently looks like. But I
want to switch to macros as they are more lightweight and controllable.

Hi Ant users,
I have three macros: a, b, c, and a property 'x'. Is there a way to execute the
macro ${x}, i.e. a if ${x}=a, b if ${x}=b, c if ${x}=c, (fail otherwise) with
ant core? Something like

Hey,
In a target, I create a bunch of intermediary files which should *always* be
deleted right before the build completes, even if it completes abnormally. This
is quite similar to closing a stream in a java 'finally' block. Anything
similar for ant?
Thanks,
Felix

I found the solution my self in the ant manual:
It would be nice to do this on-the-fly, so that source and dest are the same.
Is this possible somehow?

Hey,
I prefer my xml files to look nice, so I indent multi-line-echoes (these go to
a file). Is there a simple ant way to remove all the spaces that were caused by
the indentation afterwards?

That's perfectly fine.

Yes this works. I tried to find a way that lets me omit the "=someValue"
part, as the value doesn't matter..

Hey,
A) I couldn't find a task that shows all available targets (and their
descriptions). I didn't think through whether that's a computable
problem, but I guess it is :-)
B) I'd like to just 'define a symbol' on the command line. My target
would then conditionally do something different if
