Remember that <property> is a task. I agree with you that it would be a lot cleaner to require this, but it sure would break a lot of build files if we didn't allow <property> to be used between targets (I'm sure there are enough examples of build files that do just that). > So we would probably need to make exceptions for taskdef, property, > and typedef because they are already allowed anywhere, One of the main reasons for top-level tasks was to remove exceptions 8-) Stefan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
