Hi,
It occurred to me that the way Ant reads property files in imported
build scripts is not very modular by default. As the manual explains, to
read a property file relative to the current script, you must do the
following:
<!-- imported.xml -->
<project name="imported" basedir="." default="...">
<dirname property="imported.basedir" file="${ant.file.imported}"/>
<property file="${imported.basedir}/imported.properties"/>
</project>
But on the other hand, the import task itself uses import paths relative
to the current build file. I would like to be able to do the same with
property files in imported build files, either like this:
<import propertyfile="imported.properties"/>
Or somewhat more clumsy like this:
<property file="imported.properties" scriptrelativepath="true"/>
