| Your ideas about annotations | Your ideas about annotations 2005-05-10 - By Alexey N. Solofnenko
Hello,
I am thinking about adding generic annotations for targets and tasks
to specify arbitrary meta data that can be used by different executors
or other code (for example, to be able to specify what targets should
not be executed in parallel by parallel executor). There is a discussion
about ways to specify them. What do you think:
[ ] Processing instructions (for example, <?group name="linux-build"?>)
- most tools, IDEs should not be updated, because PIs are usually
invisible to XML parsers (unless the parsers ask for PIs). Cons: people
do not like PIs, it may be more difficult to generate or to act upon in
generic tools.
[ ] Special nodes (for example, <ann:group
xmlns:ann="http://ant.apache.org/annotations" name="linux-build"/>;
"ann" namespace can be defined globally) specified before (or inside,
looks less pretty, but generic tools will like them inside more) XML nodes.
[ ] Other...
Your ideas are welcome.
- Alexey.
