Hi Conor, et al I have merged the ant-type code into my antlib code. However it uses a "magic" attribute name "ant-type" to achieve the effect and not as discussed before - the namesspaced attribute name like - "ant:type". I can easily do a name-spaced attribute name for this, however if this is done there will be only one object in the xml name space uri - type. Would this be reasonable? for example: <project xmlns:poly="ant:polymorhic-uri"> <copy todir="dist"> <fileset poly:type="zipfileset" .../> </copy> </project> Peter
