Re: How to pass property?

You want to pass the property as -Ddo.delete=y . Then you want to add a 
new property called something like 'noninteractive' and wrap that input 
step in a target that is something like:

<target name="get.input" unless="noninteractive=true">
<input
message="All data is going to be deleted. Continue?"
validargs="y,n"
addproperty="do.delete"
/>
</target>

So then you end up passing -Ddo.delete=y -Dnoninteractive=true

The second part skips you past the question, the first part sets the 
do.delete property for you.
