Oops, sorry, I pressed <enter> before filling out the form.
Anyway... this is a task that calls a target without creating a new Project as
CallTarget (antcall).
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beware though that it's *not* reentrant, thus acting as a *direct* call to the
target without further dependency resolution and without any property
scope.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Example snippet that shows the speed difference (I used it in the embed
proposal test.xml file):
<target name="test-runvscall" depends="test-run, test-call"/>
<target name="test-run">
<taskdef classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.RunTarget"
name="antrun" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
<antrun target="main" />
</target>
<target name="test-call">
<taskdef classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.RunTarget"
name="antrun" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
<antcall target="main" />
</target>
The need?
I ask the user what task it should run using an input task, and then I should
just run it, without scoping whatsoever.
In this regard RunTarget is much better:
<input message="Please select a target "
addproperty="input.selection"/>
<antrun target="${input.selection}"/>
