I have done this: Defined my Macro outside of a <target>. This is because it is called from many targets. Within the macro's <sequential>, I have a <fail> (with message!). Works a treat.

I tried to define a macro in a different target and then use it in another target. Regards, Mayuresh. -----Original Message----- From: Mayuresh Kshirsagar Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 3:31 PM To: 'Ant Users List' Subject: RE: problem with <fail/> I see that only if fail is called from the scope of the <target> atg, it fails the build. I have some more customized tasks, even if fail is called from them, it doesn't fail. Is this understanding correct? -----Original Message----- From: Anderson, Rob (Global Trade) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 2:01 AM To: Ant Users List Subject: RE: problem with <fail/> > -----Original Message----- > From: Matt Benson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2006 1:00 PM > To: Ant Users List > Subject: RE: problem with <fail/> > > --- "Anderson, Rob (Global Trade)" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > A macrodef would probably belong outside of a target. > > Usually, but for completeness' sake I'd like to point out that a > common exception would be conditional macro definition.
