|
|---|
| 12 | <h3>Description</h3>
|
|---|
| 13 |
|
|---|
| 14 | <p>Displays all the current properties (or a subset of them specified
|
|---|
| 15 | by a nested <code><propertyset></code>) in the project. The
|
|---|
| 16 | output can be sent to a file if desired. This task can be used as a
|
|---|
| 17 | somewhat contrived means of returning data from an
|
|---|
| 18 | <tt><ant></tt> invocation, but is really for debugging build
|
|---|
| 19 | files.</p>
