1473:         fail "Don't know how to build task '#{task_name}'"
1474:     end

Clear all tasks in this application.

      # File lib/rake.rb, line 1522
1522:     def clear
1523:       @tasks.clear
1524:       @rules.clear
1525:     end

      # File lib/rake.rb, line 1443
1443:     def create_rule(args, &block)
1444:       pattern, deps = resolve_args(args)

1446:       @rules << [pattern, deps, block]
1447:     end

Return the list of scope names currently active in the task manager.

      # File lib/rake.rb, line 1562
1562:     def current_scope
1563:       @scope.dup

      # File lib/rake.rb, line 1449
1449:     def define_task(task_class, args, &block)
1450:       task_name, deps = resolve_args(args)
1451:       task_name = task_class.scope_name(@scope, task_name)
1452:       deps = [deps] unless deps.respond_to?(:to_ary)

1457:       task.enhance(deps, &block)
1458:       task
1459:     end

If a rule can be found that matches the task name, enhance the task with the prerequisites and actions from the rule. Set the source attribute of the task appropriately for the rule. Return the enhanced task or nil of no rule was found.

Evaluate the block in a nested namespace named name. Create an anonymous namespace if name is nil.

      # File lib/rake.rb, line 1568
1568:     def in_namespace(name)
1569:       name ||= generate_name
1570:       @scope.push(name)

1573:       ns
1574:     ensure
1575:       @scope.pop
1576:     end

Lookup a task. Return an existing task if found, otherwise create a task of the current type.

[Source]

      # File lib/rake.rb, line 1463
1463:     def intern(task_class, task_name)
1464:       @tasks[task_name.to_s] ||= task_class.new(task_name, self)
1465:     end

Lookup a task, using scope and the scope hints in the task name. This method performs straight lookups without trying to synthesize file tasks or rules. Special scope names (e.g. ’^’) are recognized. If no scope argument is supplied, use the current scope. Return nil if the task cannot be found.

      # File lib/rake.rb, line 1532
1532:     def lookup(task_name, initial_scope=nil)
1533:       initial_scope ||= @scope
1534:       task_name = task_name.to_s
1535:       if task_name =~ /^rake:/
1536:         scopes = []
1537:         task_name = task_name.sub(/^rake:/, '')
1538:       elsif task_name =~ /^(\^+)/
1539:         scopes = initial_scope[0, initial_scope.size - $1.size]
1540:         task_name = task_name.sub(/^(\^+)/, '')
1541:       else
1542:         scopes = initial_scope
1543:       end
1544:       lookup_in_scope(task_name, scopes)
1545:     end

Resolve the arguments for a task/rule.
