Checking for build.properties and properties upon initialization

[Dimitris Mouchritsas]

Hi everyone.
I'm trying to create a sample project to test if the build.properties 
file exists and if the required properties are set
upon initialization. But I'm not quite sure if I use correctly the 
condition task. This is what I've come up with right now:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<project name="TestProject" default="init">

   <target name="check-required-properties"
           description="Checks for required properties">

       <fail>
           <condition>
               <and>
                   <available file="build.properties" />
                   <isset property="server.path" />
               </and>
           </condition>
       </fail>

   </target>

   <target name="init"
           description="Check build properties and initialize directory 
structure"
           depends="check-required-properties">
       <tstamp />
   </target>
</project>

Without the build.properties file the build process succeeds. Why?
Thanks
Dimitris
