My project currently uses a common build file to build a number of sub- projects (each of which may also have a sub-project as well). My first inclination was thus to use the subant task to build all these subprojects, as so (almost straight out of
and subtask documentation):

    <macrodef name = "iterate">

        <attribute name = "target"/>

        <sequential>
<subant inheritall="false" inheritrefs="false" target = "@{target}" genericantfile = "build.xml">
                <dirset dir = "." includes = "*.subproj"/>
            </subant>
        </sequential>

    </macrodef>

    <target name = "Build-Project">

        <!-- Do Stuff -->

        <iterate target = "Build-Project" />
</target>

However, this fails with "subant task calling its own parent target." This shouldn't be happening because I am calling the target on a different directory. I snooped around the web and enough people have run into this for me to consider it a bug and thus a lost cause. My question instead is how to alternatively achieve this same effect. I tried using <apply executable = "ant"> to achieve something similar to this, but with little luck. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks,

Francisco Tolmasky
