> Thanks for that info, I read the ANT DEV thread, I'd like to suggest that you add an attribute to properties that specify whether they are read-only or not. With read-only the default. That way anyone requiring mutable properties can add the read-only='false' attribute and have the behaviour they require. Just one more field in a proerties object and a bit of checking code! the problem is that the anyone who wants mutable properties is often different from the somone who wants to use their build in a larger build. A nice simple, properties arent mutable in a single 'context' is simple, coherent and works. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
