Other optional task do the same. Well I haven't looked at specifc cases in optional package anything that is gpl'ed disallows using any method names including constructors which means you have to do everything through reflection. A real PITA especially if you need to call lots of methods :/. >+1 to put it in the optional package without adding the jcvs library to ANT. well I would like it there aswell but doing so would require a PITA programming model (ie through reflection). And it would still require a seperate download - so if you wanted it you may aswell package up the task with jcvs and put it on a web page.
