------- Additional Comments From jan@materne.de  2005-03-11 08:02 -------
The order is:
1. execute dependend targets
2. check if and unless clause
3. execute the target regarding to step 2

This is because you can do some checks in an earlier target which then sets the 
flag. E.g.

<target name="adminDoes.check">
    <input addproperty="answer" message="Do you have admin privileges?"/>
    <condition property="isAdmin">
        <equals arg1="${answer}" arg2="yes"/>
    </condition>
</target>

<target name="adminDoes" depends="adminDoes.check" if="isAdmin">
    <echo>Hello Admin</echo>
</target>
