import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

Helper class for the check of the configuration of a given task. This class provides methods for making assumptions about the task configuration. After collecting all violations with assert* and fail methods the checkErrors will throw a BuildException with all collected messages or does nothing if there wasn't any error.

Example:

    public class MyTask extends Task {
        ...
        public void execute() {
            TaskConfigurationChecker checker = TaskConfigurationChecker(this);
            checker.assertConfig(
                srcdir != null,
                "Attribute 'srcdir' must be set.
            );
            checker.assertConfig(
                srcdir.exists(),
                "Srcdir (" + srcdir + ") must exist."
            );
            if (someComplexCondition()) {
                fail("Complex condition failed.");
            }
            checker.checkErrors();
        }
    }
