I actually disagree with that statement somewhat. As long as the self-modification is controlled and static, it's actually a good and powerful way to build multiple projects by applying on-the-fly changes to what gets fed to Ant ultimately, usually incorporating centralized information. And I don't think it's quite like <import> either. I do agree about not locking Ant into forcing reparsing if the build file is changed, although it's simple enough to find out if the build file has really changed, and use the cache if not... I'm planning on exploring the static on-the-fly self-modifying build file avenue myself... --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
