+1. Count me as another 'wild' one. :) Another very common usage that i have seen & used many times is the following : <target name="cleancompile" depends="remove.classes,compile"/> Where as 'compile' target does not declare dependency on remove.classes. However cleancompile assumes that the dependent targets are executed sequentially. I am interested to know why is it desirable to have the parallel executor work on unmodified build XML files. -Prashant > > <target name="dev-deploy" depends="clean-cache , package , set-dev-env , > target , deploy" description="full targeted > build and deployment in DEV"/> > > > The current behaviour offers a nice way to aggregates in sequence a set of > independent target. > > Gilles > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
