- subant can be used with directory sets to execute a build from different directories.
- 2 different options are offered :
- </p>
-<ul>
- <li>
- to run the same build file <code>/somepath/otherpath/mybuild.xml</code>
- with different base directories, use the genericantfile attribute
- </li>
- <li>if you want to run <code>directory1/mybuild.xml</code>, <code>directory2/mybuild.xml</code>, <code>....</code>,
- use the antfile attribute. The subant task does not set the base directory for you in this case, because you can specify it in each build file.
