Re: Java World: Build scripts with Groovy and Ant artcicle

There's one great Ant feature that's missing from this example: 
build.properties files.

It's a pretty common "idiom" for Ant scripts to include a 
build.properties in the project's root (ie, same dir as build.xml) with 
defaults and another on $HOME, which overrides these defaults.

I have tons of projects and a pretty large ~/build.properties, with 
locations for libraries, etc. How can I achieve the same functionslity 
with Groovy builder?

TIA,
Daniel Serodio
