Sorry for reacting 3 months later.... I was talking about the fact that overwrite=true behave differently in 1.4 and 1.5 (See http://forums.gradle.org/gradle/topics/replacing_tasks_overwrite_true_does_not_work_in_1_5)
That should be documented. If you want to get rid of maybe you should be more explict about it :) I have used the overwrite parameter because the documentation tell me to do so if I want to replace a task : http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/more_about_tasks.html#N10E7A Maybe you should put a big warning in the documentation saying "This parameter might not behave as you expect" Cheers -- View this message in context: http://gradle.1045684.n5.nabble.com/Long-term-plan-for-replacing-tasks-tp5711257p5711906.html Sent from the gradle-dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
