I'm trying to import a set of properties from a property file into my build when using the <ant> call. My property file looks something like this:
<project name="scenario_properties" basedir="."> <property name="component" value="vti"/> </project> My build file contains this target: <target name="all"> <ant antfile="buildfile.xml" target="build-all-test" output="vti-all.log"> <property resource="properties_files\vti-new.properties"/> </ant> </target> The <antfile> that it's calling (buildfile.xml) contains this target:. <target name="build-all-test"> <echo>component name is ${component}</echo> </target> But the output of the above target build is simply: build-all-test: [echo] component name is ${component} Why is the component property not getting passed to my antfile? I've also tried a properties file with the "component=vti" syntax and get the same result. Thank you, Scott
