That's fine. I wasn't suggesting that Ant be changed. It's just

Well, right or wrong, that is the way Ant has worked since the start and
it will not be changed now. The paragraph you are quoting is about the
dependencies in a single Ant target evaluation. So if Laurie had a target
and he executes
ant targe
This doesn't seem right to me.
The "Using Ant" chapter of the "Ant User Manual" has always seemed
pretty clear on the subject:
"In a chain of dependencies stretching back from
a given target [...] each target gets executed
only once, even when more than one target
depends on it."
Great, thanks for the tip! :-)

the next release.

You're not doing anything wrong... you're just remembering wrong :-)
The way it's working is the way it works.
