          Priority: P2
            Bug ID: 53244
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Add "useDestinationBasedir" to import task
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: Core tasks
           Product: Ant

When using the import task, users are forced to changed all paths in the
imported file, so they are based on ${imported.basedir} instead of just the
normal basedir.  See: http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/import.html

This is extremely cumbersome when one want's to reuse existing ant code 

A attribute to the import task below would solve this problem. When set to
true, the imported ant file would be resolved using it's default basedir,
instead of that of the importing file. It would naturally be optional and
default to false, so it won't break any compability. 

<import file="path/to/other/build.xml" useDestinationBasedir="true"/>
