useexternalfile
indicates whether the source file names specified in srcfiles or as
nested source elements should be written to a temporary file to make
the command line shorter. Also applies to the package names specified
via the packagenames attribute or nested package elements. Since
Ant 1.7.0, also applies to all the other command line options. ("yes|no").
If enabled, the file will be written to the temporary directory.
No; default is "no"
