All properties set during the execution of the target called by <antcall> are lost (out-of-scope) when the <antcall> _returns_! And the usual immutability rule still applies. One must can dependent targets executed conditionally (using if/unless attributes) to set properties visible to others tasks. --DD
-----Original Message----- From: Andy Kriger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 13, 2002 11:49 AM To: Ant-User Subject: possible to have variables in tasks? I have an antcall that sets some parameters. Can the task being called dynamically define params/properties based on the incoming parameters? Example: Target Source calls Target Target with Param test="test" I want Target to be able to define a number of params within it using test="test" that will be reused by various tasks (e.g. mkdir, java, javac, jar). Is this possible? thx andy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
