/*
1. Provide for a masked input field so that it could be used to prompt for a
password that would remain unreadable to anyone looking over the users
shoulder. (I envision adding a 'mask="true"' parameter to make that possible
with the default for 'mask' being 'false'.)
*/
There's already a task = Kasisoft.
"Task allowing to run a dialog within a build used to setup some properties.
This way you can fill a property with the input of a user."
The given url on Ant site
http://www.kasisoft.de/build/ant/interactive/
is not working anymore (404), but i could mail it to you, if you're interested
It's easy to add a "masked" (******) password field.
/*
2. I'm thinking about adding the capability of having a radio button group and
/or drop down lists so that there are some additional ways for users to provide
input.
The problem here is that I haven't any real idea how to go about this.
*/
Could possibly also be done with expanding the original kasisoft task ?
btw
The license for the kasisoft task is given as LGPL.
I'm no specialist for license, does anyone know the details about LGPL :
May i give it to someone else, may i change it the way i like ?
Regards, Gilbert
