Ant-taks to return true?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Using the ant task, the build fails if there are any jslint errors. Is it 
possible to ignore that to have a successful build anyway?

I've found out that jslint4java is generating an exception, as long as I don't 
use haltOnFailure="false". Is that by design or a bug? Exception is (from ant):

This is intentional behaviour.  The default is to stop the build, unless you 
ask otherwise.
