| ignoreLiterals | +if true, CPD ignores literal
value differences when evaluating a duplicate block. This means that foo=42; and foo=43;

- then switch it on to see what it turns up. There's also a ignoreIdentifiers="true" option
- that does the same thing with identifiers; i.e., variable names, methods names, and so forth.
- The same guidelines apply. There's also an encoding option which allows the encoding used
- when parsing files to be specified; the default is based upon the locale.
- Finally, there's an optional language="cpp|java|php|ruby" flag
- to select the appropriate language; the default language is "java".

Also, you can get verbose output from this task by running ant with the -v flag; i.e.:
