I am trying to build an ant build system where each component builds the things that it depends on.  Each thing that they depend on are in different build files.  Subsequently, I use the include task.  However, I run in to a problem when say component 1 needs to build component 2 and component 2 needs to build component 3.  Ant tells me that when I told it to build component 1 that it doesn't know the targets in component 3.  How do I get 1 to inherit the includes all the way down the line without explicitly telling it about all the components that anyone depends on?
