Description Charles Hasegawa 2004-05-26 20:01:48 UTC

The core task <ant> which is used to call targets in another ant build file 
should allow for many of the options that can be used from the command line.

For example, there is an output attribute, but if you want to use the XML 
logger to output to an XML file, there isn't a way to indicate this.

I was forced to emulate the -k flag with several <subant failonerror="false">
