(1) Make sure there is a Copyright notice on all visible files. (2) Make sure all years in which the file has been modified are listed. (3) Make sure the format is consistent, i.e. separate consecutive years with a dash, not a comma. When Stephane changed starteam.html it has been 2001 in France but 2002 in Australia - does that mean we add 2002 to the Copyright line or not? ;-) git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/core/trunk@270652 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

<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>
|
