You are right: Properties are immutable! Your problem seems to be a different one: If you do not run the target, the property wont be set. Make sure you set the property in a task that is called before you use it elsewhere.

In the definition of ant properties, it is said that they are immutable. "Beeing set once, they cannot be reset again". But I had to find out that properties set inside a <target> are not valid outside of said target. Is this intended and if so, are there ay elegant solutions to make this property project-based?
