Bug ID: 64782 Summary: allow task attribute names to contain periods Product: Ant Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: Core Assignee: notifications@ant.apache.org Reporter: gunpolishing...@cbfiddle.com Target Milestone: --- In converting a macro to a custom task, I faced a problem that the arguments to the macro had names containing periods. I wanted to maintain compatibility and support the same names as task attributes. Although it may be possible to support such attributes using the not-very-well-documented DynamicAttribute feature, it would be more convenient and consistent to generalize the mapping from attribute name to task method name. The task method names do not need to be pretty. It could be something like setMain_DOT_class for the attribute "main.class". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
