Hello Diane,
is it that if at all i want to customise any task then only i need
source?. If iam using ant built in tasks with my own build.xml fie then i do
not need source?
I did whatever u said and ran the sample build.xml u had written and it is
successful
Now i want clearly understand this
Thanks
DK
