Force all location properties to be resolved in Unix Style
Hi, Is it possible for ant location property to be resolved or echoed always in unix style path seperator.. irrespective of os on which ant is used.. e.g should print c:/java/portals/liferay/vers/ when this script is run in windows os too.. Basically every reference of ant property with paths should use separator / rather than os specific one.. Is that possible through some global property Regards, Raja Nagendra Kumar C.T.O www.tejasoft.com -- View this message in context: http://ant.1045680.n5.nabble.com/Force-all-location-properties-to-be-resolved-in-Unix-Style-tp5713314.html Sent from the Ant - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@ant.apache.org

Hi On reference to task definition of FileList, I see there are only two attributes dir and files. However, below it talks about id and refid too. http://ant.apache.org/manual/Types/filelist.html In the API I don't see any setId() method at all and setRefid() method is deprecated.

Refactoring of ant scripts
Hi, It would be great for experts of ant dev, consider enhancements to ant to make it refactoring friendly. Some of the thoughts I have here are 1. All the tasks, which has a reference to path/file should support include patterns as in fileset. Such support of patterns would enable script writers to choose not to have absolute paths. 2. Should support referring of ant files's directory (like ant.this.dir or ant.this.file) 3. All the tasks which need a root directory, can be configured to take either basedir (could be the default as it is today) or ant.this.dir. It would nice to capture much more such needs of writing refactoring friendly needs from others and give a big push to ant tasks design.

Ant properties access based Object notation rather than script based
Hi, My thoughts are still vague.. thought to share this with ant dev and making it better based on all your reply.. Currently I see the toughest thing in managing the huge ant scripts is remembering property names and referencing to them. The issues I see are 1. properties can be declared though tag which are global and readonly nature. Global nature has huge impact on choosing the names. To an extent we could control to this though names such as compile.classpath etc.. i.e using the . as seperator 2. Many properties could also be declared though custom tasks Many new properties may be declared through java interfaces constants.. however one has to remember their names when referred with in ant script. Many chances are there that the name may get changed in interface value but not in script. In this context was thinking is there a way/or think of a new feature to declare ant properties as interface constants/enums in java and refer them through the interface only.. many be though class import and referring them directly (not using the
Re: Feature Request - Executor setting though the script
Woh.. Ant seems to have most of what we are looking for.. Your suggestion works.. small change was the name of the attribute was classname instead of class This takes care of it. Stefan, when we supply it as ANT_ARGS, we used 'ant.executor.class' instead of 'ant.executor' .. Not sure why such difference.. Stefan, is this approach works with all other ANT_ARGS, such as -listener etc.. if yes, could you let me know how to find the respective id name.

Javac or a New Task (ClassSourceCopy) with Source Files Copy option
In the world of internet and pressure to reuse as much as possible, there is a need for able to copy only the files which were used to generate the class files. In a declarations like this The sourcepath would result in compile the needed sources as used by the files defined in src. This approach would mean lesser classes and hence jar size. However, for version management and reference and for back up, one needs to store all the files including all sources as defined in sourcepath. For a SME's where every thing matter including to be more simple backup, we see the need for having only the copy the sources which are used and not all the sources which are not used by this compile. Seeing such generality need, thought of putting across to forum if it is nice to have a option for javac to copy the sources which are used. I understand ant's javac task does not do this dependency check directory but the underlaying javac.exe of sun does this.

Re: project.replaceProperties()
Stefan, you are correct.. We did make few modifcations to ant source and this
has side effect else where..
We are trying to support multiple property references resolutions with in a
string some thing like this..
Project p = getProject();
p.setProperty("nagrama", "nagiest");
p.setProperty("n", "nag");
p.setProperty("m", "rama");
p.replaceProperties("${${n}${m}}")//${${n}rama}
p.replaceProperties("${${m}${n}}") //${${m}nag}
p.replaceProperties("${${n}${m}${n}}")//${${n}ramanag}
p.replaceProperties("${nag${m}}")//${nag${m}}
p.replaceProperties("${nag${m}${n}}")//${nag${m}nag}
p.replaceProperties("${nag${m}${n}${m}}")//${nag${m}nagrama}
p.replaceProperties("${nag${m}${${n}${m}}}")//${nag${m}${${n}rama}}
the one in comments is current behaviors in original ant code.
Pl. observe that there is misbehavior of replace properties.. i.e 2nd one
gets replaced but not the first one..
May be it would be nice for properties and replaceProperties to support such
multi level property resolutions.
We are seeing such need to define the properties based on the module id,
this helps in writing macros and custom tasks based generic property names.

>isolation between the calling and thecalled project. stefan, it is true of inherit* properties, however here are some scenarios 1. The developers may want to call clean, startTomcat... etc and some other targets from root to all the sub directories. However module developers are more interested in current module only (as there would be no sub build.xml files any way) 2. the inherit properties are set to true only and isolation is not a concern in such scenario. I know does complicate subant to be little context aware.. but if there are no side effects as in the above context, it could boost performance specially what if many targets are called using subant way.

Ant IDE Integration API to ease IDE plugin or any generic plugin development
Hi, In continuation to my discussion at http://www.nabble.com/IDE%27s-integration-with-Ant-spi-%28Server-Provider-Interface%29-support-tt22870203.html#a22890423 Looking for ant team to consider if ant could provide a certain api for plugin development, e.g Query for targets, run a certain target with debug enabled, get the output of the ant, adding few vitual targets to better handle the integration (this would also be usef full in non ide context too) Currently I understand from the Netbeans impl. they seem to do lot of parsing them self - This approach could mean when the ant changes each ide's had to do lot of job.

Re: IDE's integration with Ant any clues
Hi Jesse, Nice to note that there is some code available as part of apache ant tools and get to know your integration experience. To further think big.. does the forum member think that there should more such support from ant libraries to integrate with IDE's e.g Query interface to know the list of targets, an approach to add virtual ant targets to any project (say if the project is JavaME project, the ant integration could add open emulator etc.) Some think in the scope of Ant Plugin Development Support API focused around IDE integration, so that these api could much richer and closure to ease IDE integration support.

IDE's integration with Ant any clues
Hi, Most of the IDE's do support directly accepting the build file and showing the targets and running the targets, going to the respective xml source code and showing the ant build file output. For all these, does ant have any extra intefaces, which ide vendors could use to integrate e.g setting the ant out redirection, query the ant api to get the list of targets etc. In case no, I assume that each IDE vendor must be writing their own xml parser to get these details etc. If no, are there any plans to extend ant api for IDE plugin developers in future.

Re: FileSet with copy fails with NPE..
Hi Stefen,
Thank you for the follow up questions..
I am getting to feel that, I did not explain the senario correctly.. Let me
try again to support why I feel it is obvious.
This is my ant description..
In this macro defination of mine.. I have a copy taks.. which is a direct
ant copy using as it is with me explicitly setting project to which it
belongs too..
DeepCopy is custom Ant task.. which internally uses Copy with some custom
organisation specific logic to copy.
Its defination uses taskdef some thing like this..
As DeepCopy is used with in the build xml file, could ant consider all the
copy or any other api used with in DeepCopyTask be part of the same
project! (in this case project called J2MECommon)
If we could do this, I consider this as safe and right assumption from the
design..
Pl. let me know what I am missing here..
I wish to limit my self, if by design this is the correct thing to be do.
if yes, we could explore on impl. options and complications it may bring in
due to various things as told by forum members such as IDE, Parallel
execution etc..
Regards,
Nagendra

Re: FileSet with copy fails with NPE..
Hi Stefan,
Thank you the code changes. I shall go with the changed code.
However Stefan, not able to convince on why this can't be done
automatically, as it is so obvious that new Copy Object is created while
wring the cutom tag extentions to ant. This code are used with in project
context and it gets invoked though custom xml tags only in build file only.
I understand of explicit initialisation, if used as libarary in normal java
applications.

Nagendra

Re: FileSet with copy fails with NPE..
Hi Mark, Thank you for quick reply.. I saw that listed in forum and thought I need to set the project fileset.. However, the issue was to set project for copy taks it self. To Ant Dev Team, It was 3 hours of wasted time to figure this out.. Simple copy without fileset usage works fine without setting the project and fails only when the fileset is added to copy task. The actual cause with line 431 of org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Copy ds = fs.getDirectoryScanner(getProject()); Which inturn results in NPE in FileSet NPE during log at line 477 in org.apache.tools.ant.types.AbstractFileSet p.log(getDataTypeName() + ": Setup scanner in dir " + dir + " with " + ps, Project.MSG_DEBUG); In future, it would be nice if ant could do one or more of the following changes in all such places, where it depends of project value should not be null 1. Make sure proper asserts are done for getProject() method if it should not be null at all 2. Or focus on Methods which depend on non null value of getProject() and should throw proper exception 3. AbstractFileSet could use getProject() of its own task rather than depending on the parameter passed to it. Not sure, why the project is passed as parameter..(may be I don't understand the need due to my currrent limited understanding) Regards, Raja Nagendra Kumar, C.T.O www.tejasoft.com -A Competent Java Specialized Product Development Team. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/FileSet-with-copy-fails-with-NPE..-tp20935877p20936814.html Sent from the Ant - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
FileSet with copy fails with NPE..
Hi,
We are writing ant task, which needs to copy files based on fileset
defination like this..
Copy c = createCopyTask();
FileSet fs = new FileSet();
fs.setProject(getProject());
fs.setDir(new File("."));
fs.setFile(f);
c.addFileset(fs);
c.execute();
where createCopyTask() is
private final Copy createCopyTask()
{
final Copy c = new Copy();
c.setTodir(new File(getDestdir().getPath()));
c.setIncludeEmptyDirs(false);
c.setFailOnError(true);
c.setOverwrite(false);
c.setFlatten(false);
return c;
}
However this code is resulting in NPE with the following exception..
Could any one guide what is wrong here..

Nagendra

import ask to support path structures
It may be a good value, if import supports fileset or any path structures to disover list of files it needs to import. e.g Regards, Raja Nagendra Kumar, C.T.O www.tejasoft.com -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/import-ask-to-support-path-structures-tp16378253p16378253.html Sent from the Ant - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is because, my client (J2ME Game publisher) is asking for this order.. Any case why should the oder be manipulated by the jar command. Why does it not take the things in way it has been provided ..

Ant Jar doubt
Hi, When ever we jar I see in the manifest 'Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.6.2' this line. Could any one tell me how to avoid this. And also I want to put few properties of mine in a way the squence of these properties are maintinated in manifest. My observation here is sqence is altered. Thank you in advance Regards, Nagendra - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
