Custom Task using Groovy

I've created a groovy class that (indirectly) extends Task, and I'm
calling it from my build script, but the property setters are not
getting called.  I've even explicitly coded the setters, to make sure
they are visible to the Ant code.

 

Is there some trick I am missing, or am have I just overlooked something
dumb in my code?

 

Thanks, Mike

I usually use ScriptDefs, but I needed to extend an abstract task that
another custom task extends, to handle a set of nested data elements
that I need to pass to it.

I also found, contrary to my earlier post, that I didn't need to
explicitly code the property setters.

Thanks, Mike

Hello Mike,

you could define your task using scriptdef. See 
http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/scriptdef.html

Then your groovy class does not need to extend Task.
