is attribute order important to ant?

Are the following two tags equivalent from ant's perspective (will it parse
both of them properly)?

<copyfile src="test.java" dest="subdir/test.java" />
<copyfile dest="subdir/test.java" src="test.java" />

Sincerest regards,

Yes, although this is due to the properties of XML not specifically Ant.
