Might I also suggest that you should use the project.log(...) methods for
writing state messages from your uiDisplayProgressMsg,
uiDisplayProgramError, and uiDisplayResponse methods. For example, you
probably would want a call like
public void uiDisplayProgressMsg(String message) {
project.log( message, "jcvs", project.MSG_VERBOSE );
}
and
public void uiDisplayProgramError( String message ) {
project.log( message, "jvcs:error", project.MSG_ERR );
}
These logging methods provide a nice, consistent interface to logging in
Ant. Yes, given the way its implemented in Project, System.out is
redirected to the log file, but it doesn't have to be. By using the
project.log(...) methods you aren't relying on the implementation, but
rather the interface.
