<target name="compile" depends="copyProps, -init">
<javac srcdir="${project.src}"
destdir="${project.classes}" classpath="...">
</target>
<target name="copyProps" depends="-init">
<copy todir="${project.classes}">
<fileset dir="${project.src}">
<include name="**/*.properties">
</fileset>
</copy>
</target>
It is a useful exercise :)) One of my very first
errors when I started mastering Ant was that in
compile target I did an <antcall> to copyProps instead
of depending on it. As the build xml grew bigger, it
ended to copying the properties file several times due
to poor design and lots of <antcall>s.
It is also worth noting that when an i18n'ed
application is developed copyProps target is a possble
place for doing <native2ascii> transformation.
