Hi,

today I tested RRD MA service using Ant 1.7.0 (usually I'm using 1.6.x) and I noticed that the behavior of Ant 1.6.x is little different. You may see that the questions printed by the scripts have default values duplicated.

example:

Enter the name of the service [perfSONAR-RRD-MA-1.1-RC4]: [perfSONAR-RRD-MA-1.1-RC4]


This is because Ant 1.6.x does not print default value specified in one of attributes of input element, so it is now hardcoded, see below:


<target name="_get-service-name">

<input message="Enter the name of the service [${service.name}]:"
addproperty="_service.name"
defaultvalue="${service.name}" />

</target>


I decided not to change this situation until Ant 1.7.x is more popular and widely used but be aware of this strange behavior.
