Using WAS's ANT tasks?

[Mika Moilanen <mi...@stybba.ntc.nokia.com>]

I'd like to use Websphere5.0 com.ibm.websphere.ant.tasks.* with ANT,
but I had to provide a task definition for this in my own build file,
for example:

<taskdef name="wsejbdeploy" classname="com.ibm.websphere.ant.tasks.WsEjbDeploy"/>


Does anyone know wheter IBM provides these definitions in some file --
it'd be tedious to write own definitions for every task?

-- 
Best Regards,

You can do it once by using

<taskdef resource="name/of/property/file"/>

where the resource references a property file is in this format:

taskname=classname

e.g.

wsejdbeploy=com.ibm.websphere.ant.tasks.WsEjbDeploy

Add a line per task, and include the task def just once in each build file.

Hope this helps!
