Hum little mistake in my explanation : By typing "ant -p" 1) Case of target and target-group mixed project help will display something like :*Available target :* compile --> compile the current projet org.apache.ant#jar.compile-java --> compile java classes on the current project package --> package the current project org.apache.ant#jar.package-jar --> package this project as a jar
2) Case when target and target-group are separated *Available target-group :* compile-java --> compile java classes on the current project package-jar --> package this project as a jar *Available target :* compile --> compile the current projet package --> package the current project 2008/11/19 Jean-Louis BOUDART <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > svn revision 718943 contains target-group (without documentation) as a >> special kind of target that must always be empty. > > targets and target-groups have a new attribute target-group that can >> be used to add the target(-group) to a named target-group that must >> have been defined already[1].
