RE: Are Properties in sub-projects available to the master projec t?

Nope. Like unix processes, properties are not propagated back to the parent
build. You can achieve it using <propertyfile> though... Write a file by the
sub-build, that you read back in the parent, but it's kind of a hack. --DD

Subject: Are Properties in sub-projects available to the master project?

Hi all,

I have a master build file that call other ant build files that run junit
tasks with the failureProperty="test.failed" attribute set, however when
tests are failing the master should fail calling the <fail/> task but this
does not append and I suspect the test.failed property is only available in
sub-builds, am I wrong?

Thx
Claude
