Re: [nant-dev] trycatch task ?

2004-07-09 Thread Gert Driesen
Troy, I think we first need to come to an agreement on whether its a good idea to add a try-catch task, or whether to go for the errorproperty implementation. I don't think it's a good idea to implement both. Your task implementation is a bit limited, the ant-contrib task is more powerful. I

I think both are cases of inter-task communication. IMO current nant is totally missing such communication. errorproperty proposal is very limited implementation of such communication. I'd rather prefer making something more robust enabling more advanced scenarios like examining what failed or

Gert, My implementation of the task is extremely limited, but it exactly fits our requirements :-) It would need to be reworked to fit the broader requirements of the community before being released, of course. Notwithstanding, you are right in that the task shouldn't be just dropped in without

2004-07-09 Thread Troy Laurin
Martin, just read through your previous thread. I think that XML-based communication between tasks and the trycatch task have different purposes. Specifically, trycatch is a flow control device. Flow control can certainly be reproduced with increased task verbosity, but using a flow control

Hi again, Some time ago I propose XML-like based communication - maybe its time comes? How do you see it now when there was enough time to consider it? I don't like the we-do-anything-in-xml approach. XML is a nice thing, but it certainly adds some overhead to communications. I would

Hi, In previous posts on this I was against a trycatch/ (or try-catch/ :-)) task. I have had time to rethink this position though, and although I think it will make build scripts a little more complex (or a lot depending how fancy you get) it would definitely be useful. In my opinion I would
