However I was asking myself another question. What happens with the basedir project's attributes? I saw you can pass a property, but what happens if there exists already defined basedir property and you pass one to the build you are calling with subant? I know that properties are immutable, but I also know that basedir is a "special" property, which reminds me another question: what is the special of the basedir property? Thank you again! -- Regards, Petar!
