Re: P4 Optional Tasks

In our build XML files, we add a taskdev for P4Sync:
...
    <taskdef name="P4Sync"
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.perforce.P4Sync"/>
...
    <target name="sync" depends="init">
        <P4Sync view="//depot/${p4.branch}/..."/>
    </target>

Adding the taskdef should take care of Ant's complaint.
