AW: Implicitly call a target in imported file

2007-11-12 Thread Jan.Materne
The simplest thing would be not putting your validation rules in a target. Having them directly under the tag in common.xml would make them to top-level-tasks, which means that they are executed when running the build (before any target and also when doing an "ant -p"). Alternative: place an

2007-11-12 Thread David Weintraub
If you invoke multiple targets on the command line, each target will execute, and dependencies will execute independently. There is no way of Ant to know if one of the targets you put on the command line might affect a later target. For example: $ ant first clean_first second If Ant kept track of

Perhaps the ant code could create/touch a file at the conclusion of A and test if the file is created at the beginning of A. If the file does not exist at the start of A, then invoke to actions of A. If the file exists at the start of A then do not invoke the actions of A. A should be refactored
