| DESCRIPTION |
With Ant 1.1 I would define a property on the command line and then use this
property to set the basedir. In Ant 1.2 if this is done than
project.getBaseDir() returns a bad directory name. This is used to set the
working directory for a Jikes compiler which than causes it to fail.

+ ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2001-02-01 14:39 -------
+ I can partly confirm this. Does work in Ant 1.2 as described in the original
+ description, but can not reproduce in Ant 1.1.
+ Ant just appends the value contained in basedir to the current directory and
+ does not resolve the property.
