REPORT #196 Details.

Project: Ant
Category: Bug Report
SubCategory: New Bug Report
Class: swbug
State: received
Priority: high
Severity: critical
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: 1.1
   JVM Release: 1.3
   Operating System: WindowsNT
   OS Release: 4.0
   Platform: Win32

Synopsis: 
Properties are read in regardless of execution of the target

Description:
In build.xml, I specify three different targets that read in properties using 
<property file="file.properties" /> - One set of properties is shared for each 
of the three targets and the other set of properties that I wish to read in is 
specific to the desired target.

The problem is this:  It appears that all <property> tags are read in 
regardless of whether or not the target is executed.  Therefore, incorrect 
properties are read in for the desired target.

Property tags should be resolved just like any other internal command.  If the 
target is not executed, its properties should *NOT* be loaded.
