Hi,

Hopefully someone can help me or point me in the right direction here.

I have a custom Ant task which I want to use to invoke another command which isn't known at compilation time. It uses an approach very similar to Ant itself, in that is builds the command from RuntimeConfigurables/UnknownElements. This all works but for running commands which have a prefix (such as my other custom commands).

I want to be able to translate the prefix to a namespace uri that I can set with UnkownElement.setNamespace( uri ).

For clarity, this is a simplified form of what I want to do. (I realise the example doesn't make a great deal of practical sense in this form; this is just for illustrative purposes :) ).

			

			

			xmlns:myprefix="http://some.uri"
			

			>
			

			

			uri="http://some.uri"
			

			classpath="mylib.jar"
			

			/>
			

			

			
			

			

			

			
			

			

			

			...
			

			

			

			

		

Taskrunner is what I'm trying to get working, so it executes the task just as Ant would when parsing the xml form above it. I am parsing the 'myprefix' from the taskname, but I don't know how to get the namespace 'http://some.uri' programmatically at this point. Is there a way to access the namespace mappings defined in the build script that invokes taskrunner?

Thanks in advance.
