[PATCH] Inheriting custom tasks in subprojects
Hello all.
This patch lets sub builds called from the Ant task to inherit task
definitions as well as properties. Its a usefull way to have a parent
build process define the custom tasks to be used by all sub builds. Of
course, all this will be moot once Arnout has the new system ready, but
untill then this is a useful workaround.
Comments, anyone?
