http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27116 Imported target depends not preserved when overridden ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-03-16 23:57 ------- I was originally bothered by this myself to some degree but a little thought puts it in perspective. Think of it in terms of Java methods. Overridden methods don't just behave as the overridden methods on the parent class; if you want to either mimic or inherit behavior you have to either a) do what the overridden method does, or b) call super.methodname() In Ant you should be able to accomplish (a) by duplicating the depends attribute. You should be able to accomplish (b) in this manner: assuming your <import>ed file contains <project name="parent">...</project>, <target name="overridden" depends="parent.overridden">...</target> That's a guess, but it should work. -Matt --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
