RE: Directory names

[Vikas Phonsa <VP...@suz.com>]

Jan,

Your explanation for the topic of "Evaluating properties based on other
properties" on jguru was awesome. 

Now I finally understand the <foreach> and <propertycopy> tasks.


Thanks of ur help.

Vikas

I wouldn´t do a loop and several if´s.
I would try that:

- let the project create their javadoc in their own directory (common name
  e.g. apidoc):
  Projects/devSystem/Project1/apidoc
- do the creation with a unified target
  <target name="javadoc"/>
- write that target in an external file
  Projects/javadoc.xml
- include that in the several buildfiles
  - <import file="../../javadoc.xml"/>
  - XML entity include
- write a global buildfile
  Projects/build.xml
  - iterates over all sub-buildfiles
    <subant>
  - copy all apidoc directories
    <copy>, <fileset>, <mapper>


<subant> and <import> are part of Ant 1.6 (beta available at 
http://cvs.apache.org/dist/ant/v1.6beta1/ )
