Hi,
I also do not see any harm in this fix. It makes things easy for people who still use Ant as a command line tool, be it to run makes or to move files around or deploy applications.

It was addressed to everyone.
File.deleteOnExit is only a hint. More interesting would be for the task
to have a finalizer and for it to do cleanup then, which is likely to
happen much much earlier in ide-hosted ant.
FWIW, the smartfrog TempFile logic does autodelete, but only as part of
its terminate() method, which is called during undeployment. Even then,
it tries to do it by hand first (if it is still there)
if (delete && getFile() != null && getFile().exists()) {
if (!getFile().delete()) {
getFile().deleteOnExit();
}
}

You know this is pretty unreliable, dont you?
It only kicks in when the process exits cleanly. In
a project called by another
project, the temp file will last until the outer
project exits. If you are
running Ant under an IDE, it wont kick in until the
IDE exits itself, which
could be weeks.
Was this addressed to me, Patrick (the requestor) or
both? :) Point taken, but is this actually
_undesirable_, or merely "unreliable"? If the former,
we can roll back and call the bug WONTFIX, but I
confess that I really see no harm in it (obviously, or
I wouldn't have applied the change :).
