Import checks if the file has already been imported: So importing the current build file would import it once.
The following import.xml: <project> <echo>Hello World</echo> <import file="import.xml"/> </project> Using ant -f import.xml prints out "Hello World" twice. Note that one can still cause infinite loops with antcall: <project default="x"> <target name="x"> <antcall target="y"/> </target> <target name="y"> <antcall target="x"/> </target> </project> Peter On Wednesday 03 September 2003 11:42, Stefan Bodewig wrote: > On 3 Sep 2003, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Throw an exception instead of looping forever in top-level <*ant*> > > task. > > does <import> need the same treatment?
