[jira] Created: (IVY-904) ant properties are not propogated to ant
build with ant-build trigger
ant properties are not propogated to ant build with ant-build trigger
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-904
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-904
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Ant
Affects Versions: 2.0-RC1
Reporter: Steve Benigan
Fix For: 2.0-RC1
An ant-build trigger calls a target in an ant build file but does not propogate properties to the ant build.
ant-call does propogate them - well I'm not sure it's doing anything special but b/c it's calling a target within the current ant build they are propogated by the nature of ant.
If possible, some ivy properties should be propogated such as the ivy.cache.dir.${settingsRef} properties as well as all of the other properties set in the current build due to settings, resolve, etc. Otherwise, the ant-build trigger is limited in what it can do based on the context in which it was called.
The workaround is to use ant-call and then within the called target use "ant" task to call the desired target in an external ant file. This is not ideal since it means this target needs to be in every build file or at least in an imported build file.
PS This may be a Change Request rather than an actual bug.

Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
Summary: support ant properties propagation to ant build with ant-build trigger (was: ant properties are not propogated to ant build with ant-build trigger)
Indeed, I don't think it's a bug but a change request. Both propagation should be supported, either with a list of propagated properties, or with an inheritAll or sg.
