This is what I am trying to do and seem to be getting strange results:
I have a main build file with a target called initializeDefaults. This target will
set up some properties and
patternsets with default parameters. For example:
<target name="initializeDefaults">
<patternset id="compileFiles">
<include name="nofiles">
</patternset>
<patternset id="copyFiles">
<include name="nofiles">
</patternset>
</target>
Now, I have another build file that gets imported via the <import> task provided in
1.6alpha.
This project has a target called initializeComponent. The point of this target is to
set component specific
overrides to the defaults. For example:
<target name="initializeComponent" depends="initializeDefaults">
<patternset id="compileFiles">
<include name="**/*">
</patternset>
</target>
Now I have a build target in the first project that uses depends to ensure that
"depends" on
initializeComponent.
Then I run this target I get an error: "Reference copyFiles not found."
This was working for me when I had everything declared at the top level, however I
wanted some more
flexibility so I refactored it.
Any Ideas,
Thanks,
David Clements
