Enhance Tomcat's Ant tasks for easy build.xml configuration

           Summary: Enhance Tomcat's Ant tasks for easy build.xml
                    configuration
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: Unknown
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown

        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Cactus has a pretty slick feature in that its tasks can be defined very simply in your 
build.xml file.  
Here's an example:

        <taskdef resource="cactus.tasks"
            classpathref="cactus.classpath"/>

This is because there is a "cactus.tasks" text file in its JAR file that defines all 
the tasks.  I've done 
something similar in my Tomcat Ant Tasks HowTo (http://raibledesigns.com/wiki/Wiki.jsp?
page=TomcatAntTasks) - but it'd be much cleaner (and easier) if there was a 
tomcat.tasks file in 
catalina-ant.jar.  

This bug is to (hopefully) inspire to make Tomcat's Ant integration easier and simpler.
