first of all thanks for the information
I tried to load antx libraries and it did worked, BUT while calculating the
duration its giving me an error as :
Unable to convert 'now' to time duration.
compile took -now
Here is my code:
<target name="usage" description="Displays a list of valid targets">
<assign var="time" value="now"/>
<copyproperty name="usage.start" variable="time"
transform="datetime"/>
<echo level="info" message="usage started ${usage.start}"/>
<antcall target="usage:default"/>
<assign var="time" value="now"/>
<copyproperty name="compile.duration" variable="time"
transform="duration"/>
<echo level="info" message="compile took ${compile.duration}"/>
</target>
Is there any thing I have missed.
THanks again
