Summary: Reference not seen in imported antfile
Product: Ant
Version: 1.6.5
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P1
Component: Core tasks
AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
ReportedBy: juerg@pyx.ch
Given three buildfiles a.xml, b.xml and c.xml (see attachemnts)
a.xml calls b.xml with
<ant antfile="b.xml" target="b">
<reference refid="somereference"/>
</ant>
In b.xml there is an
<include file="c.xml"/>
and in c.xml the reference 'somereference' is used outside any target
e.g.
<project ...>
<pathconvert refid="somereference" .../>
</project>
The reference can not be seen in c.xml ??

If b.xml is written like:
<project name="b" default="b">
<pathconvert refid="somepath" pathsep=":" property="xx"/>
<target name="b"/>
</project>
it also fails.
however this works and may be used as a work-around for the moment.
<project name="b" default="b">
<target name="b-init">
<pathconvert refid="somepath" pathsep=":" property="xx"/>
</target>
<target name="b" depends="b-init"/>
</project>
The problem is a little historic. In ant 1.5, it was
not possible to have top-level tasks (except property).
As this was the case, references would not be used except
in targets. As this was the case, it was decided to allow
references in sub-projects to be over-ridden by references
specified in the reference nested element of <ant>. This
is implemented by running all the top level tasks and types
of the sub-project and then setting the references set
in the <reference> element of ant.
