ant

Description

Run a series of Ant tasks. This job doesn't run Ant, instead it uses the ant tasks directly. Oddjob creates and configures the tasks and this has some side affects:

The properties of an Ant task aren't constant. Oddjob variables can change unlike Ant properties.
The Ant property tag has no affect. It's Oddjob that is setting the properties of the task, not Ant.
Unlike Ant, the tasks are created at file parse time, not on execution. The Ant taskdef declaration doesn't work and some other related features.
Types are allowed (such as pathelement) but the id must be const. This is because the reference is set at parse time.

Not all tasks will work and not all have been tested.
