See the release notes for Ant-1.5.xx. A major change happened between 1.4.x and 1.5.x. Properties became immutable. You'll have to wait to set a default value for a property until *after* a condition has been run though. If you set a property, nothing else can reset that property (unless you use some ant-contrib tasks or use a scripting language). This is core to understanding how to write modern Ant build files. Make sure to read the docs. Jake At 02:55 PM 6/1/2004 +0200, you wrote: >Hi, > >I've upgraded from ant 1.4.1 to 1.6.1, now I get an error when building my >EnterpriseArchives.
