Erik, Don't use goals in your template.jelly script. Simply place all jelly scripting at the top level within the <project> node. For example, your example should like as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <project default="broadTemplate" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:i="jelly:interaction" xmlns:ant="jelly:ant" xmlns:define="jelly:define" xmlns:u="jelly:util"> <echo>In the broad template.jelly file.</echo> </project> Works like a charm for my templates. -- Chuck > -----Original Message----- > From: Erik Husby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2004 8:07 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: The Genapp plugin > > > Just started looking at the genapp plugin.
