| <title>Augment Task</title> |
| </head> |
| |
| <body> |
| |
| <h2>Augment</h2> |
| |
| <h3>Description</h3> |
| <p>Modify an existing reference by adding nested elements or (re-)assigning properties |
| mapped as XML attributes. This is an unusual task that makes use of Ant's internal |
| processing mechanisms to reload a previously declared reference by means of the 'id' |
| attribute, then treats the declared <code>augment</code> element as though it were the |
| original element. |
| <b>Since Apache Ant 1.8.1</b></p> |
| |
| <h3>Parameters</h3> |
| <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"> |
| <tr> |
| <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td> |
| <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td> |
| <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td> |
| </tr> |
| <tr> |
| <td valign="top">id</td> |
| <td valign="top">The id of the reference to augment. If no such reference has |
| been declared a <code>BuildException</code> is generated.</td> |
| <td valign="top" align="center">Yes</td> |
| </tr> |
| </table> |
| <p> |
| Additional permissible attributes are dependent on the reference to be modified. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3> |
| |
| <p> |
| Permissible nested elements are dependent on the reference to be modified. |
| </p> |
| |

| |
