Re: [platform-ant-dev] Custom tasks
|
No.
Using the preferences to specify a custom tasks eliminates the need for
using <taskdef>
The preference page is for convenience.
See the help documentation provided in Eclipse...search for "Adding new Ant
tasks and types"
You don't have to redefine the tasks if you do not wish...just add the
custom tasks libraries to the ant classpath (or specify
the classpath in the taskdef definition). No script modification should be
necessary...if it is please log a bug report.

Does the preferences interface exist simply so that custom tasks may be
placed outside of ant/lib? Typically one just throws custom tasks into
ant/lib and uses the <taskdef> tag to define custom tasks. Having to refine
all of these in the eclipse ui seems like unnecessary extra work.
Could you point me to a previous discussion or some code that would explain
why this step is necessary?
