I'm trying to generate a web service proxy using Axis2. In my build.xml file I want to make sure that the AXIS2_HOME environment variable is set to where Axis2 is installed. Otherwise, fail the build with a message. Here's the relevant sections in my build.xml: 

<property environment="env"/>

<target name="gen-proxy-axis2" depends="check-axis2" if="env.AXIS2_HOME">
        <property name="axis2.home" location="${env.AXIS2_HOME}"/>
        <echo message="Axis2 home: ${axis2.home}"/>
        <!-- generate the proxy here... -->
</target>

<target name="check-axis2" depends="init" unless="env.AXIS2_HOME">
        <fail message="Please set AXIS2_HOME to where axis 2 is installed"/>
</target>
