Just want to correct this... The execution of Ant is always
1. parse 2. execute-implicit-targets (which includes the include/import) When the import target is executed, it uses the same ProjectHelper but not the same Handlers. And the Project information is the same. It calls parse on that handler, which increases the import stack. Not sure how import and ProjectHelper for a specific build file would work - that sounds ugly - but the documentation states that import/include will only work with ProjectHelper2 so that's fine. These files work (via command line) with Ant 1.8.

The import mechanism creates a ProjectHelper for each import and the ProjectHelper holds the list of targets so that the design of Ant import looks to be that you can only depend on targets "below" you and not in the importing xml. I'm not sure if that is the intended design of import or if that is considered a bug...I'm going to look at 1.7.1 and see how import worked there. It might be a few days to get back to this but just wanted to communicate that...
