problem with condition using boolean
the following blows off with a: Element type "isUnix" must be followed by
either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>". happens if i use
isUnix="true" or just isUnix by itself. blows in unix or windoze 98se using
ant 5.1.
how does one use a property that is set to true in a <condition
property=...> statement?
thanks
<project basedir="." default="all" name="ImageViewer">
<target name="init">
<condition property="isUnix"> <os family="unix"/> </condition>
<echo message="isUnix=${isUnix}"/>
<condition property="junitPath" value="../junit3.7">
<isUnix=true/> </condition>

What I think you need is :
<condition property="junitPath" value="../junit3.7">
<istrue value="${isUnix}"/>
</condition>
if your intention is to set the property junitPath with valu ../junit3.7 if
the isUnix property has been set to "true"
