can we include any type of loop in the ant build.xml file?
I have to generate one build.xml file that performs the same tasks for various
modules. Each time i have to add one module or delete one module I have to remove
targets from the build.xml file or add targets in the build file. Targets have all the
functionalities same but only the module name changed. If I can add one loop in the
build.xml file that will repeat the same targets for all the modules then it will
greatly help me.
Please look at the targets below: both are same but only the name "staff" is replaced
with "provisioning" in the second target. Can I directly generate these types of
modules?
<target name="make-staff-jar" if="staff.present">
<jar jarfile="${appjars.server.dir}/staff-ejb.jar">
<fileset dir="${build.classes.dir}">
<include name="**/staff/**/*"/>
</fileset>
<fileset dir="${build.ejb-meta.dir}/staff"/>
</jar>
</target>
<target name="make-provisioning-jar" if="provisioning.present">
<jar jarfile="${appjars.server.dir}/provisioning-ejb.jar">
<fileset dir="${build.classes.dir}">
<include name="**/provisioning/**/*"/>
</fileset>
<fileset dir="${build.ejb-meta.dir}/provisioning"/>
</jar>
</target>
Thanks in advance.
