Ramón, The nant is working as designed, as it should be used to call targets in other build files (not the current build file).
You can use the <call> task to call targets in the current build file. Ian, Scott, Jarek : is this something we should change ? Should we call the target in the current build file, if no other build file(s) have been specified ? Or should we fail when no build file is specified at all (meaning buildfile attribute is not specified, and no includes specified in buildfiles fileset ? Or should we just output a warning (or info message) that no build file(s) were specified ?

I'm unable to invoke another target (included in another file or in the same project file). The following sample doesn't work. Thanks. <?xml version="1.0"?> <project name="Test" default="build"> <target name="test"> <echo message="Never Invoked"/> </target> <target name="build"> <nant target="test"/> </target> </project> -----Mensaje original----- De: Gert Driesen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: miércoles, 26 de mayo de 2004 9:14 Para: Ramón Casanova Asunto: Re: [nant-dev] include Task Ramón, Can you send me a repro for this ?

Otherwise, the target is simply ignored. When I include a file without a root project element, the only target is always executed even if I don't invoke it using a nant task.
