Description sangudo 2007-10-03 18:19:15 UTC 
If a project moves to a different directory, the ant shortcuts
break with: "old/path/to/build.xml no such file or directory".  I.e.,
it appears the path to build.xml is hard-coded.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2007-10-03 18:29:43 UTC 
Yes; the shortcuts are just stored in your user directory, not as part of the project. In the future I have considered
using a quite different implementation that would keep the shortcut information in the project, in which case the Ant
module would check open projects for any configured shortcuts. This would among other things permit use of relative paths.

Later.
