AntCall effectively creates a new Ant instance. Properties and references set within the call won't be visible after the call returns, and targets executed before the call might be executed again within the call. It's very different from having a target as a dependency. Replacing one with the other has all sorts of ramifications. -- Niklas Matthies --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
