Class SoundTask

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectComponent
          org.apache.tools.ant.Task
              org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.sound.SoundTask

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.lang.Cloneable

    public class SoundTask

extends Task

Plays a sound file at the end of the build, according to whether the build failed or succeeded. There are three attributes to be set: `source`: the location of the audio file to be played `duration`: play the sound file continuously until "duration" milliseconds has expired `loops`: the number of times the sound file should be played until stopped I have only tested this with .WAV and .AIFF sound file formats. Both seem to work fine. plans for the future: - use the midi api to define sounds (or drum beat etc) in xml and have Ant play them back
