           Summary: Small error in doc (due to variable expansion?)
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.7.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: notifications@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Take this snippet of the delete target doc in ANT 1.6.2:

"WARNING: Do not set dir to ".", "${basedir}", or the full-pathname equivalent
unless you truly intend to recursively remove the entire contents of the
current base directory (and the base directory itself, if different from the
current working directory)."

The same snippet in ANT 1.7.0 has become:

"WARNING: Do not set dir to ".", "/Users/antoine/dev/asf/ant-core", or the
full-pathname equivalent unless you truly intend to recursively remove the
entire contents of the current base directory (and the base directory itself,
if different from the current working directory)."

It looks like the ${basedir} variable has been expanded to its respective value
for the user that has built the doc, when it should have stayed non expanded.
