Ah. In that case, it does look like the arguments have to be an

Yes.
I had tried it without :needs but I didn't need
two params, so I just did
task :name, :first_name => :pre_name do |t, args|
which fails.
The docs only talk about an array, so I should have tried that, but I
didn't.
[Did this used to be true? I used to have (god knows why ...)
Task { :name => :prereq }, :arg do |t,args|
which used to work but no longer does ... but perhaps never should
have?]
That was never supported syntax. I'm kinda surprised it worked.
Entirely optional, but it wouldn't hurt to mention explicitly that
the args
has to be an array, even if there's only one element, given that
being able
to pass single objects unwrapped seems to be a common idiom in Ruby?
So noted.
And, if you're in the docs,
The next to argumements are the names ...
should be
The next two arguments are the names ...
no?
Thanks.
