The main use case of > course is for macrodefs. And they are a good idea for this. How does nesting of locals work? If a macro calls another macro, are the properties set in the outer macro available to the inner? What about <ant> subbuilds invoked from inside a macro? > The <local> patch uses the following elements for block scopeing - > <target> and <sequential>. > > (I think that this could be restricted to just <sequential>). I think there are two options: restricting it to sequential or allowing it for any TaskContainer. Anything else will make us add more tasks to the list of allowed containers.
