how implement an iteration of tasks
Hi all,
I need to execute an ANT task N times where N is the length of elements
that I have to load up from a file.
Each element is a parameter for the task ANT.
Is there a way to implement that using the core ant tasks?
Or I need to implement a new custom task class which load the list file,
and for each item read execute the target task ANT?
Thanks

ant-contrib has two interator tasks, <for> and <foreach>. <Foreach>
calls a target
for each iteration and <for> iterates over an in-line list of tasks.
<for> only
works in ant 1.6.

Hi Ernesto, I just discovered <foreach... this past weekend. It should do what you need.
You can get it from SourceForge. It is part of the ant-contrib package.

you mean you want to run the Ant tool against lots of
buildfiles? In addition to the other suggestions made
you should look at Ant 1.6's <subant> task as well.
