I have two ant files. base.xml: <project name="base" basedir="."> <macrodef name="emptymacro"> <sequential> <echo>In base emptymacro</echo> </sequential> </macrodef> <target name="go"> <emptymacro/> </target> </project>
deriv.xml: <project name="deriv" basedir="."> <import file="base.xml"/> <macrodef name="emptymacro"> <sequential> </sequential> </macrodef> </project> When I do ant -f deriv.xml go I get this output: Buildfile: deriv.xml Trying to override old definition of task emptymacro go: BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 0 seconds So, since it reports success, I'm guessing the "Trying to override..." message is just a warning. I actually am trying to override that macro. Is that a bad idea? Is there a better way to do this? I'm using Ant 1.6.5. -cr --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
