In ant 1.5, it was not possible to have top-level tasks (except property). As this was the case, references would not be used except in targets. As this was the case, it was decided to allow references in sub-projects to be over-ridden by references specified in the reference nested element of <ant>. This is implemented by running all the top level tasks and types of the sub-project and then setting the references set in the <reference> element of ant. -- 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]
