Hi,
in a custom task you usually do not need to use a new Ant project instance, so
I would use getProject() to access the project attached to the current ant task.
If you are programming a piece of code to execute an Ant task or ant Ant build
file from a Java class or framework which is not r
I am trying to create a custom ant task to copy files to a specified location
based on some criteria provided to the task.
I am using ANT's Copy task for my custom task. I have seen some discussion
about using one of the two - getProject() and "new Project()" but haven't found
any discussio

I am using Harvest for SCM. I didn't see any existing ant tasks for

With xml includes you can include a part of a xml file.
With you imports another buildfile.
With you define tasks.
What Stefan was:
- your buildfile s sales.xml and common.xml
- these two files have s for declaring the tasks,
maybe set some s or make some <[macro|preset|script]def>s.

Unfortunately that advice is not that good anymore. If you are using
Ant 1.6.0 or later, use instead of entity includes.

I can't remember off the top of my head about -q, but the default level is
INFO which would give you ERROR, WARNING & INFO. The -v flag gives you
that plus VERBOSE, while -d gives you everything.

Are there any "best practices" for which logging levels to use from

The 5 levels: MSG_ERR, MSG_WARN, MSG_INFO, MSG_VERBOSE and MSG_DEBUG are
self explanatory, but I'm not certain which levels appear when ? I'm

Well, it is possible to use a task/type without a taskdef if you
package your tasks/types as an antlib and use XML namespaces in the
buildfile, with the Magic antlib:package-to-antlib-xml-file
namespaces.
It's not in the stri
Without modifying the "core" ANT distribution this is not possible...if you are
willing to modify the "core" distribution I would guess you would need only
upadate the defaults.properties file located in the
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs directory in the ant.jar in incl
The closest thing is to use antlibs + namespaces.
Autoloading is being debated on the developer list.

does anyone know if its possible to write ant tasks in a jar file with

I'm trying to run Ant from within Java. I've used code
similar to that in org.apache.tools.ant.Main and things
worked fine in 1.6.0, but then break in 1.6.2.
I think it has something to do with class-loading/namespace
stuff, but I can't find any good documentation or anyone
who's encounter
Does ant support a good solution to having a separate security policy for
a custom ant task? Or can I provide a global security policy for ant's
security manager?
If not, what's the "common practice", if any?
