So what do I get on the ant/antcall/subant side of things? Do I get the original global value? Or nothing? If I need to pass this value, does that mean I need to use <param> explicitly? This would have to be documented very well because it may be confusing otherwise. I understand your selection in the context of the attributes of <macrodef> but I was thinking on the general case. So let at least add a strong usage description in the docs for <local>. Jose Alberto PS: BTW I think this is one of the best features we have added to ANT so I hope it manages to get to 1.6. With this feature alone one can get rid of all those anoying properties whose only reason for existance was passing a value between two tasks. > Peter > > > > > Jose Alberto --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
