Description

Task to determine the basename of a specified file, optionally minus a specified suffix.

When this task executes, it will set the specified property to the value of the last path element of the specified file. If file is a directory, the basename will be the last directory element. If file is a full-path, relative-path, or simple filename, the basename will be the simple file name, without any directory elements.
