Description Darin Swanson CLA 2002-11-01 15:36:43 EST 
From the ant mailing list:

The problem with the Ant classpath / task preferences dialog
(if I understand it correctly) is that it allows me to omit taskdef lines
that would be necessary when using the build file outside of the IDE. I
personally think it's a bad idea for build files to have such dependencies
on an IDE as the whole point of Ant is portability. If this feature were
recast as a wizard that would add the necessary taskdef lines to the build
file it would be much more useful.

Not planned for 2.1
Comment 2 Denis Roy CLA 2009-08-30 02:25:47 EDT 
As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
