http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22338 add a "minversion" and a "version" attribute to taskdef ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-08-12 11:24 ------- It is not enough to check if there is greater-or-equal version available than the version you have used originally with the project, because software has sometimes non-backward compatible changes. So rather something like this should be used: <taskdef name="foo" classname="bar.Foo" compatible="1.4"/> where "compatible" is an *arbitrary* string, and then Ant should define a standard interface by which the external task can be invoked to check if it is compatible. So the external task is who parses the version number or whatever version description it gets with attribute "compatible", not Ant, and it is the external task who judges if he is compatible or not, not Ant. But... I wonder how many external task developers would take the trouble to maintain this stuff. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
