Actually, it's much easier than that.
The following bit of code synthesizes creates 10 tasks where task t(n)
depends on t(n-1), except for t0 which depends on nothing:
task :t0
(1..9).each do |i|
task "t#{i}" => "t#{i-1}" do |t|
puts t.name
end
end
No need to delve into define_task and all that.
amazing i overlooked the simple route and instead went so far as to create a
sting to eval. the code necessary was just cut in half :0)
thank you for your help and for rake!
cheers,
