<target name="myTarget" depends="myTarget.check" if="myTarget.run">
    <echo>Files foo.txt and bar.txt are present.</echo>
</target>

<target name="myTarget.check">
    <condition property="myTarget.run">
        <and>
            <available file="foo.txt"/>
            <available file="bar.txt"/>
        </and>
    </condition>
</target>

Call-Graph:  myTarget.check --> maybe(myTarget)

A target has the ability to perform its execution if (or unless) a property has been set.

<target name="build-module-A" if="module-A-present"/>

If the module-A-present property is set (to any value, e.g. false), the target will be run.

<target name="build-own-fake-module-A" unless="module-A-present"/>

If the module-A-present property is set (again, to any value), the target will not be run.
