It is used from target `imported'." I think it's not good and maybe a bug. And i dont want switch off target overriding, but I think if some project has target depends on another target it must be from the same project. I have N small build files(projects) and one common. In common project I call <ant buildfile="xxx" target="all"> in small projects i have target <target name="all" depends="target1,target2,target2"/> and in describing by you behaviour of ANT I need look thru all importing projects to find if they have some target with the same name, and I think this is not logically. (In c++ or java I have keywords as "virtual" or "protect" or "abstract" ) to avoid those misunderstandings in _runtime_. So I dont agree with you that importing look like extends in java, It more look like include in @[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Please, note the depends clause of target > name="imported".
