At least I think so.
No, really Stefan! recurse.xml was doing a <subant> on rescue.xml, and it's rescue.xml which failed to parse (like I said, because rescue.xml was doing an entity include of a URI using a custom URL protocol not enabled during this run. FTR, I was replacing entity include using that protocol with <import>). So Filters.xml was importing recurse.xml recurse.xml was <subant>'ing rescue.xml rescue.xml failed to parse because of the entity include (see above) And *still* the error messages never mentioned that *rescue.xml* failed to parse, and simply reported on IOException in recurse.xml, never mentioning as well that recurse.xml was itself imported by Filters.xml. I don't know what layer is at fault here, but the proper error should have reported that rescue.xml failed to parse, from <subant> at line XYZ in recurse.xml, imported from Filters.xml at line ABC. Without this kind of clear and detailed error report, <import> and <[sub]ant> will not mix happily! > > and furthermore, the error is reported to occur in recurse.xml, > > never mentioning that recurse.xml was in fact imported from > > build.xml or at which line. > > This is a bit harder to track down and put into the error message, I'm > afraid.

As I said above, I think it's absolutely necessary Ant does this! --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
