Hi all,
I'm trying to refactor a build file we have here into a commonly used
set of targets and then project specifc targets. Here's my directory setup
./common/build.xml
./common/build.properties
./build.xml (shown below)
Now in the common/build.xml I use the property file tag to read in
build.properties, and running this file locally, (within common) works fine
However if I try to run the project buildfile (./build.xml), none of the
properties are available (quick checks with echo just give me variables
instead of expanded properties). This doesn't seem right. The targets
from the common file are available, but the properties are not?
At first I thought it was because I was declaring a project specific
properties file too that was causing a problem, but commenting it out
did not resolce it (ie the project specifc properties were overwriting
the common properties - reasonable behaviour *if the variables have the
same name*)
So I'm currently resorting to this...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<project name="${project}" basedir=".">
<property file="common/build.properties" /> <-- this line is already
in common/build.xml
<property file="local.properties" />
<import file="common/build.xml" />
</project>
to get my project to work - I'm not sure if this is a bug or expected
behaviour, certainly I've never come across this before
Any help much appreciated, and I understand if you guys have 0 time to
answer
Kev
