antcall at top level causes infinite loop





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-09-02 17:31 -------
That makes sense. However antcall needs to call the same file in all cases so it
sounds like you are banning antcall from the top level? Perhaps there is a way
to scan ahead for the target and grab it? A quick pass over the top level of the
build file to collect the targets first would give us a list of targets to
invoke rather than calling the whole file over (if it is not already done that 
way).

It should not be too supprising to the user if top level properties defined
after the antcall are not expanded when the target is invoked. (and similar
issues with other things that happen at the top level after the antcall).

What I can't seem to figure out myself is would such a strategy force us to
change the behavior of antcall in a non-backwards compatable manner.
