include via script task
Hi all,
I'm trying to call ant's include task inside a <script> element, like
<script language="beanshell">
<![CDATA[
import org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.ImportTask;
ImportTask includeTask = project.createTask("include");
includeTask.setFile("./global-properties.xml");
includeTask.perform();
]]>
</script>
This fails with the error "import only allowed as a top-level task".
Anyone knows how to create a "top level task" inside a <script> element ?
Thanks,
Steve.

Hi Jan,
thanks for the code. I thought there was a "clean API way" to do this, but
I'll try your approach.
Regards.

Betreff: AW: include via script task
I played a little bit and the solution is to tweak the Ant API ...
This examples works for me, but using <import> or <include> via this way is
not recommended/supported ;-) Have fun - but be aware of "side effects" ...
Cheers
