I need to have some kind of condition that checks the value of an argument specified by "-Dmyprop=____" in the command line. Depending on which of the four possibilities are selected I would like to make different antcalls.

Hi Mark,

you could do something like this:

To select a target to be called, just run the build script
with an argument like -Dsecond=true or
-Dthird=true.

If you use Ant version 1.4 or newer, you can also use the
task, see the href="http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/faq.html#multi-conditions">Ant
FAQ for an example.

Hope this helps,

Chris
