<h2><a name="taskdef">Taskdef</a></h2>
|
|
<h3>Description</h3>
|
|
<p>Adds a task definition to the current project, such that this new task can be
|
|
used in the current project. Two attributes are needed, the name that identifies
|
|
this task uniquely, and the full name of the class (including the packages) that
|
|
implements this task.</p>
|
|
<p>You can also define a group of tasks at once using the file or
|
|
resource attributes. These attributes point to files in the format of
|
|
Java property files. Each line defines a single task in the
|
|
format:</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
taskname=fully.qualified.java.classname
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>Taskdef should be used to add your own tasks to the system. See also "<a
|
|
href="../develop.html#writingowntask">Writing your own task</a>".</p>
|
