ant task - property overrides

[Juno Suk]

The Ant task, called from a parent build.xml, will have all its
properties
overridden by the parent. Isn't this counterintuitive? Shouldn't
properties
set within the subproject override its parent's properties?

Is there a quick way to workaround this problem? I'm trying to automate
build recursion through a hierarchy, but the fact that the parent
property
overrides its children's frustrates me.
