Cory:

Just curious, but why do you want to override your macrodef?

I have two ant files.

base.xml:

         <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.
