MatchingTask is a legacy from the past, it's best to avoid it, and accept the filesets in your task directly. Not a big deal, but it's considered better style these days to have explicit named filesets than a single implement fileset. > I would like to be able to define a maxmem setting and a fork option, > like javac does.

It's easy use a helper task in a task, with the bindToOwner call (not sure of the name). I've used this technique in the past, and it works well. The technique does assume you have a command line entry point rich-enough to specify exactly what you want done entirely on the command line. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
