I don't think so but I am not 100% sure of what you mean. You mean something like a xslt include/import type thing ? In which case not exactly - but there is the ant task that can be useful as a replacement. Check out the documentation. As for inheritance of rules like in make no there isn't and I guess a lot of people don't want there to be :P Which rasies an interesting issue. What does every one think of target templates ? By this I mean you have a generic target for something like apidocs and compile and package etc. You then parse parameters into these templates that specify actual relevant parameters. ie by default templated apidocs target will doc all packages in src directory and place in destination directory. This would mean relatively "standard" package layouts could write build files in ~30 lines. Very simple too. Then again it reduces the conceptual clarity of ant which may be a bad thing. Anyway just a odd thought :P Cheers, Pete *------------------------------------------------------* | "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want | | to test a man's character, give him power." | | -Abraham Lincoln | *------------------------------------------------------*
