Thanks Friends,
Matt I tried to implement your advice, and no matter what I do,I get this
error message:
C:\Documents and Settings\bc\Desktop\test>ant
Buildfile: build.xml
convert_password:
[echo] Current value of my_password is Secret
[echo] The first five letters of the alphabet are:
BUILD FAILED
C:\Documents and Settings\bc\Desktop\test\build.xml:33: Problem: failed to
create task or type for
Cause: The name is undefined.
Action: Check the spelling.
Action: Check that any custom tasks/types have been declared.
Action: Check that any <presetdef>/<macrodef> declarations have taken place.
I know that means that I need to have "antcontrib" in my classpath, and I
already did so and also have this in my build.xml:
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties"/>
I am using ant1.7.0 .... even the "for" examples on the antcontrib site are
throwing this error.I tried placing the antcontrib.jar in the same place as
build.xml but that didn't helped either.....
Any more help guys!!!!

True enough. Having acknowledged that you're correct
here, I still can't resist, whenever this subject
comes up, publicly confessing my own inability to
resist doing many, many things using facilities I know
already exist in Ant though there are often
alternatives. Ant just happens to have had a lot of
capabilities baked into it over the years. :)
