Creating an ant task from xml fragment

[Ashley Williams]

Hi,

I have a fragment of ant xml and would like to create a task or  
target from it in my java code. For example here is the xml text:


                <ejbdoclet ejbspec="2.1">
                  <fileset includes="**/*Bean.java"/>
                  <deploymentdescriptor/>
                  <remoteinterface/>
                  <homeinterface/>
                  <localinterface/>
                  <localhomeinterface/>
                  <jboss version="4.0"/>        <!----- this is a  
subtask, could prove tricky -->
                </ejbdoclet>

And from the xdoclet website the ejb doclet class is:  
xdoclet.modules.ejb.EjbDocletTask, which I believe will help form a  
taskdef.
So from these two pieces of information, can I create the  
corresponding task/target that I can run in my code?

Also can I run a task on its own or does it have to be in a target?


Any pseudo code inside the following method would be very helpful -  
although the less pseudo the better ;)


Target createTarget(Node xml, Class taskdefClass) {
}


Thanks
