Question

I have an ant target I don’t want called unless I am running ant on Linux (Not called on Windows)

<target name="jar.all" depends="clean,compile.nic,jar,jar.resources"/>

The target that I don’t want called on Windows is: compile.nic

How can I do this?

Answer 1

Insert an if property to your compile.nic target.

<target name="compile.nic" if="windowsos">

And use this conditions before running your target

<condition property="windowsos">
  <os family="windows" />
</condition>

<condition property="linuxos">
  <os family="unix" />
</condition>
