New external task

Hi *,

I have had available for some time a task to check the dependencies
of CORBA IDL files, in order to generate the corresponding java files,
but I hadn't yest posted it to the ANT community.

task: IDLDepend
description: idldepend is a task verifying the dependencies of a CORBA/IDL file. 
        It parses the file, verifying the Java files that must be 
generated, taking in 
        account the modifications that can happen due to command line 
parameters. 
        If any of the Java files is missing or is older than the source 
IDL specification,
        it launches the specified compiler, being correctly supported 
those coming 
        with Orbacus, Jacorb, OpenORB, Orbix2k and Sun'JDK distributions.
        To speed up the process and avoid parsing unnecesarily the same 
files 
        continuously, it keeps the dependencies into intermediate files.
        This task does not launch as well the Java compiler, that is, its 
output are
        Java files and not directly the final bytecode.

This is something that has been requested by Ant users a couple of
times.  I'm going to close related bug reports pointing to your task
8-)

I think Luis is asking us to add a pointer on the "external tools and
tasks" page rather than adding the task to Ant. 8-)

I'll take care of it.

Could you create a bug report on nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla and attach your source code and also documentation and if possible test cases with your new task.
