http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9333 Axis build process is a mess Summary: Axis build process is a mess Product: Axis Version: current (nightly) Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Basic Architecture AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The current build file hierarchy doesnt scale, is too brittle, and therefore dangerous and harder than need be to work with. Fixes -start using <property location> to set properties to file locations, so that you can use <ant> into subdirectories properly -use XML entities to define classpaths in the sub build files, or pass them down from the parent -on a case by case basis, move sub project build files from executing in the base directory, to running in their own directories -long term: consider an XSLT based process to generate the many test build files from a simpler form. I will start by attaching the patch to stabilize the main build file
