Re: [VOTE] CVS write access - Diane Holt

+1

There seems to be plenty of us here willing to write code.  Even more
willing to argue incessently. ;-)

But too darn few of us willing to write good documentation (myself
included!).

chrights = chmod, chown + chgrp in one task....
saves a lot of parseing and executing...

Mvgr,

actually already there ... was just commented in CVS a couple of weeks ago
IIRC - if not a quick look at source should make it obvious.

Send it to here ;)
One question thou - what is chrights ?

Martin,

I'll try your code out, I need a 'chgrp' task anyway, and I didn't see any
'chgrp', or 'chown' tasks in the 1.2 release, or in the latest CVS.  I'm
guessing you should just post it to ant-dev.  (At least I *think* that's
what your supposed to do... project leaders should feel free to correct me
on that)

I posted a 'cat' task yesterday as a zip file with sources, html doc, and
test cases... don't know if that's the right way to post new tasks.  Still
waiting for some advice on that.  I pre-appologize if it's up on the web
site.

Proposal?

Hi everyone,

I love to create documentation, but programming is a lot higher on my list..
(except for today than..)
Most specs are in the grey stuff the brain ;-))
I have a question and I didn't look for the answer in any docs or source :
Are doclets already supported in Ant? I have a need for that (use a couple
of custom tags (e.g. parameters in servlets etc), custom config files, etc
to generate my javadocs). If not in ant, I'll have a go at it..
All also created chrights, chgrp, chown (nice copy & paste from chmod btw),
but I didn't test that yet in 1.2 and the latest sources. If I do : who to
mail this stuff to? (don't have cvs write access).
