That's the <import> task that doesnt have any documentation, right?
Jikes, you're right. How do I submit it, as the usual HTML page or the @tags... I'm a bit behind the Ant documentation efforts, sorry.
Maybe the thing to do is look at what major changes still need to go in to
ant. Now that we have exploded optional.jar, we need to compensate by
perhaps adding a boot loader process for running ant, so that win9x boxes
dont run out of memory.
I keep getting "line too long" when I involke ant, because the script creates a too long classpath... I'd like to fix this ASAP, any suggestions? Shall I simply load in Ant all the jars in the ./lib dir?
We also need to rework the documentation.
In what sense?
The other feature I thought was on the cards was some kind of plugin mechanism that pulls in new jars better -presumably a manifest, and the appropriate extensions to <taskdef> to handle them.
Can you please expand a bit more?
As I read, it looks like <taskdef resource="tasks.properties"/>... for a more enhanced feature, we have the "cents", but I'd move this discussion-integration-whatever to after 1.6.
I think together these would be core features that need to be up and running before we can worry about milestone releases.
