Re: [nant-dev] Subversion Tasks

[Gert D. <ger...@pa...>]

Don't think there would be any real benefit in this case, except saving
space/typing when you need to execute several cvs tasks in a row and having
a more structured layout  ...

I just like the way the Ant ejbjar
(http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/ejb.html) and serverdeploy
(http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/serverdeploy.html) tasks are
structured and implemented ...

But as I said, I haven't thought about the consequences of implementing
something like this yet ... It would be a nightmare for our task doc
generator, I'm sure..
