String's equals method on maven's property

[dan tran]

Let's say I have this below property in my project.properties

   myproperty=myvalue

The following code in maven.xml will not work

<goal name="mygoal>
  
   <ant:echo><${myproperty}</ant:echo>  <!_-- always works -->
   <j:if test=${myproperty.equals('myvalue')} >
      <dosomething/>
   </j:if

</goal>

dosomething  tag does not got invoked.


However, run this 

   maven -Dmyproperty=myvalue mygoal

it works


Any thought?
