Hi, for anyone else running into that gotcha , here's the solution =
The targetdependency in my buildscript was guilty for that strange behaviour. I had : <project name="bla" default="build" basedir="."> build as defaulttarget had the dependency -> depends="init,checkout" where target init = brings the <foreach> into the script target checkout = the target called by <foreach> now i have : <project name="bla" default="init" basedir="."> switching the default target to the target containing the <foreach> part did it. Now it works like a charm :) If default target ain't the target that contains <foreach> the target called by <foreach> is called one time to often with propertys not set.

I have a propertyfile like this : modul.1=Project1:v_1_2_4_25 modul.2=Project with spaces:thi_1_2_4_25 modul.list=${modul.1},${modul.2}, My buildscript : <target name="init"> <foreach list="${modul.list}" delimiter="," param="modul" target="checkout" trim="true" inheritall="true" /> </target> <target name="checkout"> <!-- Modulname --> <propertyregex property="module" input="${modul}" regexp="(.*):(.*)" select="\1" casesensitive="false" /> <!-- Versiontag --> <propertyregex property="tag" input="${modul}" regexp="(.*):(.*)" select="\2" casesensitive="false" /> <!--<cvs cvsroot="${cvsroot}" dest="../.." package="'${module}'" tag="${tag}" command="checkout" />--> <!-- for testing --> <echo>Modul = ${module} in Version = ${tag}</echo> gives me = checkout: [echo] Modul = Project1 in Version = v_1_2_4_25 checkout: [echo] Modul = Project with space in Version = v_1_2_4_25 checkout: [echo] Modul = ${module} in Version = ${tag} Question : where comes the third line from ?! How to get rid of that ? Thanks for any advice !!
