I'm having this issue with my build.xml file for an Android project.
I've basically copied over the "-compile" target from the android SDKs build.xml file into my own build.xml file. However, when running ant, it keeps using the "-compile" target in the Android SDKs build.xml file instead of mine. Everywhere I read, including the comments for my build.xml file, states that this is how target overriding works, but for some reason my overridden target is not running.
Is there something else I need to do?
Appreciate the help!
UPDATE:
I'm doing this specifically to comment out the <fileset dir="${source.absolute.dir}" excludes="**/*.java ${android.package.excludes}" /> line in -compile target.
As you can see below, there are two different echo statements. I keep seeing the one in the sdk/tools/build.xml being printed. The other clear indication is that the build is failing because it's not using my target.
Here is the target in my custom_rules.xml file
