Hi there. I have an interesting situation with an ant script I am working on. There are 3 scripts in total: (1) Main File Copying script (2) Error message script
and now I have been given a requirement to put a wrapper script (3) around the existing Main File Copying script. I have numbered them for readability sake. Script 1 contains targets that are run in a sequence using the depends task, with the exception of when a log file is required, then it will use runtarget to run a target in script 2. This all works fine. Now I have been asked to create another script to basically call the file copy script (1). This will allow one to do this task asynchronously without having to wait for the outcome and still get things like error messages created. However, when I do so - then runtarget on the error message target doesn't work - it can't find the error message target - seemingly because the file import hasn't been executed by this script as its a top level component (and we are only calling a target in the script). Should I use antcall instead? I've heard nasty things about it! Can I ensure the existing properties are carried across with runtarget? I'm still learning - but aren't we all/!
