Hi,
By the same notion, is there a way to get the current target's name?
Thank You,

You can either add the following to every target you want to have the description
printed out for:
<script language="javascript"><![CDATA[
desc = self.getOwningTarget().getDescription();
if( desc != null ) {
java.lang.System.out.println(desc);
}
]]></script>
Or compile, jar, and taskdef the following:
import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException;
import org.apache.tools.ant.Task;
public class PrintDesc extends Task {
// The method executing the task
// @param None Executes the task
public void execute() throws BuildException {
String desc = getOwningTarget().getDescription();
if( desc != null ) {
System.out.println(desc);
}
}
}
and include a <printdesc/> in any target you want the description printed out for.
(Maybe there's some more clever way, but it's the best I can come up with while
waiting for my coffee to brew :)
