Sorry,
Incomplete original example methinks.
If you change
- <assign var="time" value="now"/>
to
+ <assign var="time" op="-now" fromvar="time"/>
it should work.
--- [ A WORKING EXAMPLE TO DEMONSTRATE (TESTED ;-))] ----
Here's a working sample (assuming AntX is installed in a
directory at ./antx relative to test script):
<project name="test" default="timed-target" basedir=".">
<property name="jware.antx.defaults.valueuris.flag" value="yes"/>
<path id="antx.classpath">
<pathelement location="${basedir}/antx/JWare_apis.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${basedir}/antx/AntX_tasks.jar"/>
</path>
<taskdef resource="com/idaremedia/antx/install/antlib.xml"
classpathref="antx.classpath"/>
<typedef resource="com/idaremedia/antx/valueuri/antlib.xml"
classpathref="antx.classpath"/>
<target name="timed-target">
<assign var="time" op="now"/>
<echo message="started @ ${$var:time} ms"/>
<sleep seconds="2"/>
<assign var="time" op="-now" fromvar="time"/>
<echo message="duration was ${$var:time} ms"/>
<copyproperty name="duration" variable="time"
transform="duration"/>
<echo message="Duration transformed is ${duration}"/>
</target>
</project>
OUTPUT:
timed-target:
[echo] started @ 1185500881950 ms
[echo] duration was 2003 ms
[echo] Duration transformed is 2sec.3ms

first of all thanks for the information
I tried to load antx libraries and it did worked, BUT while calculating the
duration its giving me an error as :
Unable to convert 'now' to time duration.
compile took -now
Here is my code:
<target name="usage" description="Displays a list of valid targets">
<assign var="time" value="now"/>
<copyproperty name="usage.start" variable="time"
transform="datetime"/>
<echo level="info" message="usage started ${usage.start}"/>
<antcall target="usage:default"/>
<assign var="time" value="now"/>
<copyproperty name="compile.duration" variable="time"
transform="duration"/>
<echo level="info" message="compile took ${compile.duration}"/>
</target>
Is there any thing I have missed.
THanks again

Hi,
The assign task is already defined for you as part of the
AntXtras antlib. The easiest thing to do is to load the
entire antlib and experiment. *See the Quick Start and
User Guide for additional information*.
Example (assuming at least Ant 1.6.5, and AntXtras bin download
to some local directory '${antextensions.d}/antx'):
[Top-Level]
<path id="antx.classpath">
<fileset dir="${antextensions.d}/antx">
<include name="lib/*.jar"/>
</fileset>
</path>
<taskdef resource="com/idaremedia/antx/install/antlib.xml"
classpathref="antx.classpath"/>
[In any target or macrodef]
<assign var="duration" value="now"/>
...
<assign var="duration" value="-now" .../>
...

Hi
I downloaded the antxtras unility from the site but the two jar files in
that does not contain class file for assign task. SO when I try to run my
script after adding assing task it gave an error that " Problem: failed
to
create task or type assign"

I need to find out the time taken by each of the process/target in our
build.xml file. Now for doing this I have use ANT tstamp task to
calculate
the start time and end time of the process. Now my question is how do I
find
out the total time taken by the process, I mean is there any way to
calculate difference between "End time" and "Start time"
Thanks
If you can use thirdparty libraries you can use the AntXtra's
<assign> task like so:
<target name="compile" depends="-init" description="Compile stuff">
<assign var="time" value="now"/>
...[all your compiling tasks here]
<assign var="time" value="-now" transform="duration"
copyproperty="compile.duration"/>
<echo level="info" message="compile took ${compile.duration}"/>
</target>
If you want to do this for lots of your targets you can leverage
macrodefs to do this for every target using something like:
<macrodef name="timedtarget">
<attribute name="name">
<attribute name="functions"/>
<sequential>
<assign var="time_" value="now"/>
<callinline targets="@{functions}"/> <!--do NOT switch projects-->
<assign var="time_" value="-now" transform="duration"
copyproperty="@{name}.duration"/>
<echo level="info" message="@{name} took [EMAIL PROTECTED]"/>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
Then use it like so:
<target name="-compile">
...[all your compiling work here in private target]
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="-init" description="Compile stuff">
<timetarget name="compile" functions="-compile"/>
</target>
AntXtras is at: http://antxtras.sf.net/
Hope that helps.
