Is your 'resolve' target called via an <antcall> target?
 
If it is any properties/refids that are created/assinged by the target invoked 
by the <antcall> will NOT be defined/accessible after the <antcall> target 
calll returns.
 
With ANT 1.6.x you can refactor your code to use <macrodef> targets and 
eliminate the <antcall> calls

Subject: Set property is not seen?


Hi guys,

I have an interesting situation. I'd appreciate any help. Basically here 
is the idea:

1. In my project directory I have lib/endorsed directory. It is 
populated with jar files at Ant runtime (through Ivy). The target that 
does it is called 'resolve'.

2. At the end of resolve, I have the following:

<fileset dir="${endorsed.lib.dir}" id="bootclasspath.jars"
                  includes="*.jar"/>
   <pathconvert property="endorsed.path.id" refid="bootclasspath.jars"/>

3. There is a another task called 'test' that makes use of 
endorsed.path.id property like this:
<jvmarg value="-Xbootclasspath/p:${endorsed.path.id}"/>

test depends on resolve.

So, the question is why is ${endorsed.path.id} is not understood by Ant 
as a property. I thought once I set the property anywhere in the script, 
it will be resolved to its value.

Thanks a lot for any help!

Serge
