Don't know what Your ant file looks like, but I'd try to employ the antcontrib's antcallback task - it calls another target and lets it return a property (more than one actually) to the target, who made the call. Does that help?

Best regards,
Chris

I'm trying to use the discouraged "var" to keep track of updated files
for a final upload step. It appears that when I change a variable in
one target, that change is not reflected from another target. I
imagine I am going about this the wrong way, so besides explaining why
this might be happening, a suggestion for a different approach would
also be welcome. Here is exactly what I'm doing

1) conditionally compile from source (if source has changed)

2) conditionally create a file using XSLT (if source changed)

3) upload one or both of those files, or don't even bother to open a
connection if neither has been updated.

#3 is where I'm having problems. I thought I could gather the
respective files in a string in the targets for 1 & 2 and use that in
this target, but that is where I am running into issues with changes
made in a var in #1 and #2 not showing in #3

Thanks in advance for any help - I'm sure I'm missing something
simple, but I did go over the help and search old messages before
posting

Hudson
