You could look at Ant's testcases which contain the following code protected void configureProject(String filename) { logBuffer = new StringBuffer(); fullLogBuffer = new StringBuffer(); project = new Project(); project.init(); project.setUserProperty( "ant.file" , new File(filename).getAbsolutePath() ); project.addBuildListener(new AntTestListener()); ProjectHelper.configureProject(project, new File(filename)); } What you would need to do then would be to replace the ProjectHelper call with one that creates your targets and tasks, etc. Conor -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
