Allright, I actually did try it out and it isn't present :P. Any idea if there is a version 1.8.2 of ant somewhere to download?

The manual says that if the 'force' attribute is set to true then read-only files will be overwritten, but it also says this attribute is available only on ant version 1.8.2. I don't see that version of ant for download on the site. the latest version of ant that i see on the site is version 1.8.1. Could you let me know if this attribute is present in 1.8.1 version of ant? ThanksVimil
