http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13143 task for selfdocumenting of build.xml files Summary: task for selfdocumenting of build.xml files Product: Ant Version: 1.5.1Beta1 Platform: All OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Documentation AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello, Please consider the following enhancement request: Due that fact that ant has very well structured config file (build.xml) - it is possible to generate automatic help for specific builld.xml file from file itself: i.e. - Project tag contains description - Project tag contains many targets - Every target contains description of itself - Target can contain nested properties that can serve as a target parameters from all this information - it is possible to generate some build.xml help report containing very useful "usage" information, like: Project name: ant Project description: Apache Ant build system ... auto generated table of all available targets together with their description and input parameters (I think today it is impossible to determine hat properties were configured as nested for specific target). ant finally: running "ant help" command will show you the nice HTML page with usage info for current build file?
