http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28444 Import: Target Handling Bug ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-04-19 14:40 ------- I really don't think that allowing developers to qualify targets with their declaring project names is "bad practice." Most languages that support a notion of override give you this fine degree of control. Obviously, using a fully qualified target (<project>.<target>) when the unqualified one is sufficient isn't recommended (polymorphism is good). But not leaving a developer with a consistent mechanism to ensure that the base/overridable target is always called in certain cases is a problem. I'm not certain that we have to always make all targets referencable with the project name. I'm sure this has performance implications. So as DD suggests an import attribute that allows the importER to control the behavior sounds reasonable. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
