http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40422 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-09-08 11:09 ------- The reason for making -D options on the command line override anything is to allow you to override values *even* if the build file uses <ant> to delegate work. What if I want to set -Dresult.dir to get a unified result directory for every project? incidentally, this is not-not-ever change kind of feature. It is fundamental to things like apache gump successfully building all the OSS apps. If you want the root project to override things, have a file build.properties there, load it in with <property file="build.properties" /> and have per-use options pulled down. -steve -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
