It must be 'top level'. On execution it will read another Ant file

<p>
<b>Important</b>: Trying to understand how relative file references
resolved in deep/complex build hierarchies - such as what happens
when an imported file imports another file can be difficult. Use absolute references for
enhanced build file stability, especially in the imported files.
</p>
<p>Examples:</p>
<pre>
<import file="../common-targets.xml"/>
</pre>
<p>Import targets from a file in a parent directory.</p>
<pre>
<import file="${deploy-platform}.xml"/>
