           Summary: "ant -u url" should enable ant to launch with a
                    build.xml located on a remote server, currently ant
                    requires build.xml to be a local file
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.8.0RC1
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


We frequently have a need to bootstrap an environment on a machine where ant is
available but not much else, and where the complete environment is present on
our webserver including the build.xml file.  It would be really nice to be able
to just have ant use that remote build.xml file directly.

An initial, naive patch (basedir is undefined, url is not registered) is
provided.
