Summary:	CallTarget handleOutput and handleErrorOutput should be public

Description John Meagher 2003-01-30 20:54:53 UTC

The CallTarget uses a technique to route the calls to handleOutput and
handleErrorOutput to the appropriate task by utilizing protected versions of the
handle... methods.  There's a bug in the ant-contrib project (link below) that
shows the need for public access to those methods.

fixed in cvs. since they were protected you always had a workaround called
subclassing...

will be available in Ant 1.5.2.
