http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40882 Summary: Echo task doesn't emit [echo] when message is blank. Product: Ant Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Core AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the following script fragment: <property name="empty.prop" value=""/> <echo/> <echo>${empty.prop}</echo> <echo message="${empty.prop}"/> all three echo tags produce blank lines without the [echo] label. While there are those who feel that <echo/> is a cheap way to prettyprint blank lines into build output, it is incorrect behavior. See ant-dev mailing list thread here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ant-dev&m=116217612417452&w=2 and especially Dominque Devienne's reply: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ant-dev&m=116221549727883&w=2 "Any task output should be prefixed with the task name in non-emacs mode. --DD" -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
