Abstract

Some contributions to APACHE ANT, e.g. the 'de.unkrig.ant-contrib.swing-dialog' task which significantly enhances ANT's <input> task.

Tasks

<de.unkrig.ant-contrib.swing-dialog>

Pops up a highly configurable dialog and invites the user to fill in form fields:

optionType="..."

DEFAULT (an 'OK' button), YES_NO, YES_NO_CANCEL, OK_CANCEL (the default)

messageType="..."

ERROR, INFORMATION, WARNING, QUESTION, PLAIN (the default)

The named property will be set to YES, NO, CANCEL, OK or CLOSED when the task completes. If this attribute is not set, then the build will only continue iff the YES or OK button was pressed.
