I am not sure if I understand your problem ...
You have a Task with a property, eg
MyTask {
String foo;
setFoo(String f) {
foo = f;
}
execute() {
log("Foo is '" + foo + "'");
}
}
and in your build.xml you have
<project>
<taskdef name="mytask" classname="MyTask" classpath="mytask.jar"/>
<property name="foo" value="bar"/>
<mytask foo="${foo}"/>
</project>
and you'll get
[mytask] Foo is 'bar'
And in your second scenario you have
imported.xml
<project>
<taskdef name="mytask" classname="MyTask" classpath="mytask.jar"/>
<mytask foo="${foo}"/>
</project>
build.xml
<project>
<property name="foo" value="bar"/>
<import file="imported.xml"/>
</project>
that wont work?
