/home/pritu/verify/gu_hrd.distrib and in my build.xml file there is target <target name="move-along"> which is dependent on the avaliability
of this gu_hrd.distrib file, so i wanted to check that untill and unless this file exsist at its particular location target move-along should 
not get executed and build should stop with message that "gu_hrd.distrib file does not exsist at /home/pritu/verify"

Hi,

I am not sure myself, but what I would do is assign a
property name to the file and check in the <target....
if the property has been assigned a value. 

<property name="project.status"     
location="${project.home}/gu_hrd.distrib" />

if assigned it proceeds else direst it to the next
required target.

bye,
with regards,
Deepak.
