Hi, is it not possible to post mail with attaced zip-files to this list?
> <dev@ant.apache.org>: > 140.211.11.133 failed after I sent the message. > Remote host said: 552 Message rejected as it is spam (body) attachment is now temporarily avaiable at: http://www.atlantisgmbh.de/download/HelpStudioAnt-0.1.0.zip Original mail follows: Hello, I´ve written a task that allows a HelpStudio project to be compiled using Ant. As this is my first ant project could anyone be so kind to have a look at it with attention to code quality and formal requirements? HelpStudio Ant Task tested with Ant 1.6.5 license: GPL I´ve attached the distribution as a zipfile (project is registered at sourceforge - just needs acknowledgement). Some questions: 1) I used nsisant.sf.net as a model. If necessary, in which form should I state this in the source file or in the documentation? 2) Can anybody tell me down to which ant version my task is compatible? How could I easily find out? 3) One remaining problem is that command line arguments are automatically escaped via " if they contain spaces. Now it is possible that a to be compiled booklet has a space in it so the appropriate command line would look like this: helpstudio2.exe /bk="just a test" projectfile.hsp Unfortunately, when I pass the option as /bk=just a test it gets converted to "/bk=just a test" or /bk="just a test" gets converted to '/bk="just a test"' and HelpStudio doesn´t recognize these. Is there a workaround for this? Shouldn´t the ant class offer a method that doesn´t automatically add spaces? Should HelpStudio be able to recognize the escaped variants? 4) Patching http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/core/trunk/xdocs/external.xml for the "External Tools and Tasks" page: I´m using Eclipse 3.1 on Windows. I know that I can create a patch to a file that is under versioncontrol. Is there an easy way to create a patch besides configuring the svn repository in Eclipse? 5) Most of the variables are declared as protected because this is what I´ve seen in nsisant. Is this preferred over private variables? 6) btw: Though using the GPL or any other opensource license, why do people state a copyright in the source files? Shouldn´t this mean that only this person is allowed to copy the code? (I now just adopted this) Thanks in advance Lars --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
