ANT <javac> spank option?

Hobbes · 2002-09-19 20:08:36

Just wondering if this kind of option exists in ANT? (don't recall seeing it). Imagine your running and a file fails to compile. Lets say x.java. Now in the javadoc you have the @author details which lists an email address. Is there an option to look for that line and send an email off to the author to get fixing…

There doesn't seem to be a task for it. There is an email task which you could use to send the actual email but you may have to write a custom task to read javadoc tags from a java class.

Nothing I'm aware of either Hobbes.

I'm guessing you'd need to pull the source, and go and hack a new task yourself.
