/* In my ANT script, there are a few tasks which have to be executed in some different directory. After executing those tasks, ANT script should return back to previous directory.

Copy a single file to a directory <copy file="myfile.txt" todir="../some/other/dir"/> ... " A snippet illustrating your concrete problem would be helpful.
