Which means that <antcall> is slower but safer. The two main differences (beside speed) is that properties set during the <antcall> do not propagate to the parent project (are not visible past the <antcall>), and <antcall> honors the called target's dependencies, whereas <runtarget> does not (the dependent targets executed depend on which targets where already executed at the time of the <antcall>). That's why <runtarget> is not in Ant proper. It's dangerous, and you have to be an experienced Ant users to understand its tradeoffs (speed v.s. safety/correctness). --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
