target dependencies

[Laurie Harper]

It's been a while since I've written an Ant build file, so I may be 
missing something obvious here... can anyone shine a light for me? I 
have targets that have common dependencies and if I try to run them in a 
single invocation Ant executes the common dependency repeatedly.

Here's an example:
$ cat build.xml
<project default="target2">
        <target name="init">
                <echo message="init"/>
    </target>
        <target name="target1" depends="init">
        <echo message="target1"/>
        </target>
        <target name="target2" depends="init">
        <echo message="target2"/>
        </target>
</project>
$ ant target1 target2
Buildfile: build.xml
init:
     [echo] init
target1:
     [echo] target1
init:
     [echo] init
target2:
     [echo] target2
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second
$
I was only expecting 'init' to be run once... that's the way I remember 
things working. Am I doing something wrong, or is Ant?

Thanks,
L.
