Huh? Since we currently don't do this, I'm not sure what you mean. When I depend on a target in another build file, whose (global) properties does that target use. Is it the global properties from the main build file, the build file of the dependent target or a combination of both? > > >This can be a major problem if you try to link two build files (by a target > >dependency), which have property name collisions, which will be quite > >common due to use of conventions (src.dir, for example). > > Youd should read AntFarms proposal as it addressed all these questions. > Well I read the example build files and the readme (and some of the code) and I'm still a little uncomfortable with the property management issues (scoping, precedence, etc) especially for antcall, etc. Anyway, let me change my -1 to a +0 with those concerns.
