style optional?

[Benjamin Reed <ra...@befunk.com>]

The Ant documentation lists the style task in the "built-in tasks"
section, but if I try using it, it bombs out needing optional stuff.

Is style supposed to be built-in or optional?

Difficult question 8-) Actually the task itself can be compiled on any
JDK, but it needs either Xalan-J or XSL:P to work, so strictly
speaking it is an optional task IMHO.

We are not always *that* clear about placing tasks into the built-in
or optional area. I think the separation will be clearer some time,
right now I wouldn't want to move tasks around.
