Jan,
Thanks for the help.
Following your suggestion, this is what I have:
public class MyTask extends Task {
private String a;
private String b;
private List<String> things = new ArrayList<String>();
public void execute() {
for (String t : things)
System.out.println (t)
}
public void addThings(Things thing) {
for (Thing t : things.getThings())
this.things.add(f.getName());
}
public class Things extends DataType {
private List<Thing> things = new ArrayList<Thing>();
public List<Thing> getThings() {
return things;
}
public void addThing (Thing f) {
things.add(f);
}
}
public class Thing extends DataType {
private String name;
public void addText(String name) {
Project p = getProject();
this.name = p.replaceProperties(name);
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
}
}
When I used the task, it gives me:
MyTask doesn't support the nested "thing" element.
Not sure why.
Thanks.
David
