[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-535?page=all ]
Juan Jose Pablos updated FOR-535:
---------------------------------
Component: Plugins (general issues)
> Create a plugins task for ANT
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: FOR-535
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-535
> Project: Forrest
> Type: Improvement
> Components: Plugins (general issues)
> Versions: 0.7-dev
> Reporter: Ross Gardler
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.8
>
> The ant file for loading and mounting plugins is horribly complex now that we
> are using versioned plugins. I've used lots of if elements and mutable
> properties from the ant-contrib package. In my view when you overuse these
> tasks it generally means you should have a specialised ANT task to handle the
> logic. ANT is not supposed to be a programming language.
> We need to create an ANT task for the handling the installation of plugns so
> that we have more control over what is going on (for example, we can remove
> the need to have an unversioned plugin to fall back on).
