public class StartServerTask

extends org.apache.tools.ant.Task

An Ant Task that does the following :

• create a java thread,
• start another Ant target in that thread. This target must be a blocking target that starts a web server/servlet engine,
• wait for that server to be started. This is done by continuously trying to call a URL.
