No, there is no way to do this that I know of.
What you could try would be to develop your custom <source> task to spit out the information to the log and then combine this with a custom build listener to fiddle with error messages as they come out.
If not, I can think of some ways that this could be added:- essentially
you want to tag something like <source file="in.xml" line="44"/> that
can be placed legally in as many different places as possible. Then
the code which generates the build.xml could sprinkle these liberally
through the generated build.xml. And then ant would need to be fiddled
with, to get the correct error reporting (based on the last source tag
that it had read).
Does this sound feasible? Would anyone like to hazard a guess as to
how hard it would be.
Could be hard enough but you'll learn heaps :-) Conor -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
