Well as nobody answered my question from the user's group, I don't know if
the following patch I've made is conceptually correct, and if yes may you
add it :) or give me a hint about another way to do the correction?
Thanks, Khiet.
org.apache.tools.ant.Target
private String parentTask;
...
public final void performTasks() {
try {
project.fireTargetStarted(this);
parentTask=project.getProperty("ant.target.current.name");
project.setProperty("ant.target.current.name",
name);
execute();
if(parentTask==null)
project.getProperties().remove("ant.target.current.name");
else
project.setProperty("ant.target.current.name",
parentTask);
project.fireTargetFinished(this, null);
}
catch(RuntimeException exc) {
project.fireTargetFinished(this, exc);
throw exc;
}
}
