Hi Brian,
Try this code.
Note: you can't put the default value of JOF into a file that will be loaded
automatically when ant is run, such as (home)/.antrc,
as that would set JOF before your code executes. First set works, last set
fails.
On the other hand, you could set "JOF_default" in a properties file that is
loaded before this code is run, then have an "else" clause in your condition to
use it when BUILD_BOX is not set in your environment:
<condition property="JOF" value="F:/Inetpub/wwwroot/wo30"
else="${JOF_default}">

<echo>JOF = ${JOF}</echo>
<property file="jof.properties" />
<echo>After Property file, JOF = ${JOF}</echo>
</target>
