Ant just appends the value contained in basedir to the current directory and ! does not resolve the property. ! ! ------- Additional Comments From bodewig@apache.org 2001-02-15 06:27 ------- ! Properties won't be resolved in any attribute of project or target. ! ! The preferred way to alter the basedir from the command line is to not specify a ! basedir attribute at all and set the property basedir directly. ! ! See the updated documentation for project available online.
