I'm trying to import a set of properties from a property file into my build
when using the <ant> call. My property file looks something like this:
<project name="scenario_properties" basedir=".">
<property name="component" value="vti"/>
</project>
My build file contains this target:
<target name="all">
<ant antfile="buildfile.xml" target="build-all-test" output="vti-all.log">
<property resource="properties_files\vti-new.properties"/>
</ant>
</target>
The <antfile> that it's calling (buildfile.xml) contains this target:.
<target name="build-all-test">
<echo>component name is ${component}</echo>
</target>
But the output of the above target build is simply:
build-all-test:
[echo] component name is ${component}
Why is the component property not getting passed to my antfile? I've also
tried a properties file with the "component=vti" syntax and get the same
result.
Thank you,
Scott
