AdhocTask

Extends \Task

Abstract class for creating adhoc Phing components in buildfile.

By itself this class can be used to declare a single class within your buildfile. You can then reference this class in any task that takes custom classes (selectors, mappers, filters, etc.)

Subclasses exist for conveniently declaring and registering tasks and types.

Methods

Called by the project to let the task do it's work. This method may be called more than once, if the task is invoked more than once. For example, if target1 and target2 both depend on target3, then running <em>phing target1 target2</em> will run all tasks in target3 twice.
