From: Ian MacLean [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 1:12 AM If this is still true then I wonder how the parallel task in Ant works around it. Properties in Ant are always read-only, so there shouldn't be any issue unless two parallel tasks attempt to create the same new

I'm in the process of implementing a parallel type task (similiar to the existing Ant task). I've pretty much got it working and was playing with it in our current build file. The first thing I found was that properties that are declared within a target are global in scope. Needless to say,

To be honest I'd like to see us release a 1.0 with the current feature set before implementing somthing like typed properties. Agree. Still I'd like to see some verbosity patch and fileset extensions in 1.0 somehow. Hope those will find its way into 1.0 even they are not in release plan. it

Yeah, I was considering the same thing. I also wondered whether this could mean that there could be a unified type system. Filesets, string properties etc. You mean storing a fileset inside a property? Interesting idea. Oh - we already mention it before. Would be great! And also +

Oh - we already mention it before. Would be great! And also + operator in expressions could be overriden to fileset merge :) And functions with fileset argument could exists instead of string as refid to fileset etc etc etc... The overload is a bad idea. Currently it has problems with strings

Sure this is clean in a mathematical sense but personally I'd rather see a more verbose layout that actually gives me an idea of what files the fileset will match just by looking at it. Given that it can be hard to determine what a given fileset will match right now I imagine it will be that

Seems like the flow scope should be called local in C#/programming terms, and local would be private/container-only scoping. Having global be the default is a good call, but only in come case, as you have identified in if//foreach//etc. I'm sure we will be able to say more with a patch; so we can
