Does anyone know if it's possible to access properties defined in calls to Ant from Maven? Ant seems to see Maven's properties perfectly well, but not vice versa
For example in my maven.xml
<property name="mymaven.prop" value="hello"/>
<goal name="foo">
<ant target = "bar" dir="." antfile="build.xml"/>
<echo message="Ant property ${myant.prop}"/>
</goal>and in the build.xml in the same directory:
<target name="bar">
<echo>Maven property: ${mymaven.prop}</echo>
<property name="myant.prop" value="world"/>
</target>Only $mymaven.prop gets echoed.
I suspect this might actually be an Ant feature (properties in a master build are visible to sub-builds but not vice versa), but you never know - there might be some clever and Mavenish way to get round it.
