Why would you want to execute your SerialVer task
from within a filterreader? We do not encourage
calling execute methods of tasks directly, anyway.

If you want getProject to not return a null, your
Filter Reader must implement ChainableReader. Is it
implementing it? Which task are you using to test
your filter reader, btw? One of <copy>, <move>,
<loadfile>? Or is it some other custom task? If
it is a custom task, are you using ChainReaderHelper?
I fyou are using ChainReadeHelper, are you invoking
ChainReaderHelper.setProject(project)?

I am not very familiar with the serialver program
that you refer to. But generally, if your <classpath>
is 'ref-id'd, then you can reuse the same classpath
for the filterreader also.

Classpath stuff is implemented in AntFilterReader.

Currently you cannot get the reference to the containing
task's location...
