holds to set attributes, create nested elements or hold PCDATA
elements.
|

creator - allows use of create/store external
to IntrospectionHelper.

that path.

| Project |
Central representation of an Ant project.
|
| ProjectComponent |
Base class for components of a project, including tasks and data types.

Class to implement a target object with required parameters.
|
| Task |
Base class for all tasks.

Uses introspection to "adapt" an arbitrary Bean which doesn't
itself extend Task, but still contains an execute method and optionally
a setProject method.
|
| TaskConfigurationChecker |
Helper class for the check of the configuration of a given task.
|
| UnknownElement |
Wrapper class that holds all the information necessary to create a task

an XML description of what happened during a build.
|
| Exception | Description |
|---|---|
| BuildException |
Signals an error condition during a build
