Tasks do no need to extend Task class either. ( almost none of the tasks I wrote outside ant extend Task ). That's what TaskAdapter is supposed to do. > This was the first thing I had to work around when > looking at the use of Roles for data-types. And what I'm proposing is to have a consistent way to deal with task and datatype creation _and_ adaptation of external components ( not implementing ant interfaces ). A ProjectComponentHelper can create either a real ProjectComponent ( Task, DataType, etc ) or a wrapper ( ProjectComponentAdapter ). Same rules that apply for TaskAdapter whould work for data types as well - less confusing for the task/type developers, simpler ( and easier to maintain ) ant.
