All Implemented Interfaces:
  `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
