Thanks for answer, you did not understand because it wasn't clear at all ... ;)
My users can override properties in property files expected by build process, but some inputs are used to get values before these property files are loaded. So the only way to define these properties before <input>s is from command-line. But due to the way build process is launched (integration in windows explorer), it's hard for users to adapt ANT command-line ... PropertyFileInputHandler might solve my problem, I will work on this, many thanks for information ! -- Jeremie > -----Original Message----- > From: Stefan Bodewig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: jeudi 27 avril 2006 06:05 > To: user@ant.apache.org > Subject: Re: How to build silently > > On Wed, 26 Apr 2006, BOUSQUET Jeremie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > I know default values can be a solution, but sometimes > these default > > values can only come from command line (which is masked > from end-user > > and so not very usable here), and sometimes there is just > no default > > value (and so it will always ask you to press a key) ... > > I'm not sure I understand this.
