Try the flow control tasks that are in the AntXtras third party
package @ antxtras.sf.net.
For your example:
<do if="props.someprop">
<exec.../>
</do>
If you'd like to make sure the property is "true" use:
<do ifTrue="props.someprop">
<exec.../>
</do>
For multiple properties something like:
<do ifall="prop1,prop2,prop3">
<exec.../>
</do>

So what im trying to do is only execute if a property is true.. Obviously
some pretty simple logic but doing that in ant?
thanks
