There's two parts to a target: its "body", and its dependencies. A target's if/unless attributes are "evaluated" only after the target's dependencies are met (they may or may not "run" depending whether they have been run once already, as dependencies), and if/unless enable/disable only the "body" of the target. So in a sense, the target's banner you are complaining about does not precede the target's body execution, but the evaluation of its dependencies, i.e. the target's overall evaluation. I think most people run with the NoBannerBuildLogger which suppresses banners of targets that don't output anything, and thus don't mind. I don't think Ant is likely to change in this regard. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@ant.apache.org
