How do I set properties in Ant?

1. By supplying both the name and one of value or location attributes.
2. By supplying the name and nested text.
3. By supplying both the name and refid attributes.
4. By setting the file attribute with the filename of the property file to load.

How do I override property value in Ant?

Ant Properties are set once and then can never be overridden. That’s why setting any property on the command line via a -Dproperty=value will always override anything you’ve set in the file; the property is set and then nothing can override it. This way: Anything set at the command line takes precedence over build.

Can properties be modified in Ant?

You can’t change the value of a property in Ant.

Which interface is used by Ant attributes?

What is Antcall?

Properties are passed to the new target using nested elements. An investigation of the Ant source code reveals that antcall instantiates and calls the ant task using the current buildfile. This means that a new project instance is created and properties work the same as they do for ant .
