You can do this with <xmltask> and the <call> instruction. Using <call>
you can call a subtarget setting properties etc. as required.
e.g. some pseudocode if your ejb requirements, names etc. are specced in
an xml file called ejbs.xml
<xmltask source="ejbs.xml">
<call path="/ejbs/ejb" target="build-ejb-jar">
<param name="ejb-name" value="@(protected)"/>
</call>
</xmltask>
Of course the above depends on the precise specification of your input
XML file.
