A couple of months ago I wrote a <case> task, that allowed you to inspect
the value of a property and set another property depending on it.
But it was sutdown, as not worthy, too scripty :-(
In any case, the accepted procedure is using the pattern:
<property name="X.${X}" value="true" />
<task .... if="X.A" .../>
<task .... if="X.B" .../>
and so on.
Hope this helps,
Jose Alberto
