http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43404 Summary: [depends] be able to (partially) disable/control the dependency graph calling ant Product: Ant Version: 1.7.0 Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Core AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] use case: the dependency graph is fairly long and consumes quite some time to execute all steps. especially when testing it occurs that not all tasks in the chain need to be run. it seems that others the same problem solving it with rather clumsy workarounds. http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ant-user/200703.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] command line options to handle this would be great, like: --skip <target list> RESULT: execution is normal except for those targets in the list. these are skipped, meaning that their tasks arent executed, but their dependencies are stilled honored and followed up. --stopat <target list> RESULT: when the dependency graph is created it wont follow any dependencies of the named targets. --nodepends <target list> RESULT: only the given targets would be executed in the given order --newtarget <target list> RESULT: creates a new empty target with the given targets as the depends value. the idea be hind this is: although you can execute several targets from the command line in one go, the dependency graph is fully executed for each, causing unneeded duplicate execution due to overlap i realize that with a good build file design this options are not needed as much, but you are not always in control of the build file or dont have the time to rewrite/change it. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
