[Aravind_RP]

hi
Am using a 3rd party jar in my ant script for xml manipulation.the jar file i placed in a folder in my workspace.
it is working if i unzip my jar and keep it but it is not working if i keep the jar as such. my code is as below
<path id="lib.path">
                      <fileset dir="${PROJECT_DIR}/ant" includes="${PROJECT_DIR}/ant/*.jar"/>
                 </path>
                 
<typedef name="xmltask" classname="com.oopsconsultancy.xmltask.ant.XmlTask" classpathref="lib.path" />

it says the class com.oopsconsultancy.xmltask.ant.XmlTask is not found. please help urgent

Hi,

You should specify "includes" value relatively to the "dir" attribute of
the <fileset>, i.e.:

     <path id="lib.path">
         <fileset dir="${PROJECT_DIR}/ant" includes="*.jar"/>
     </path>

Or also:

     <path id="lib.path">
         <fileset dir="${PROJECT_DIR}" includes="ant/*.jar"/>
     </path>

BR,
Olivier

For debugging purpose I want to echo the actual classpathref. But it does not work by using something like this:

    <path id="all.you.can.need.class.path">
        <fileset dir="${eclipse-home}/plugins">
            <include name="**/*.jar"/>
        </fileset>
    </path>
   
    <target name="echo">
        <echo>${all.you.can.need.class.path}</echo>
    </target>

It prints nothing although there are jars in this dir.

Any idea how to echo it?

<echo>${toString:all.you.can.need.class.path}</echo>

the ${toString: ...} has all files in a comma separated list

Hi!

I usually use a macro such as:

<!-- Macro for echoing an entire fileset by reference -->
<macrodef name="echo-fileset">
        <attribute name="filesetref" />
        <sequential>
                <pathconvert pathsep="${line.separator}" property="@{filesetref}.echopath" refid="@{filesetref}"/>
                <echo>   ------- echoing fileset @{filesetref} -------</echo>
            <echo>${@{filesetref}.echopath}</echo>
        </sequential>
</macrodef>

And then:

<target name="print">
        <echo-fileset filesetref="all.you.can.need.class.path"/>
</target>

This gives me the opportunity to convert the path separator and such.

if it's only for a simple echoing - similar to those
System.out ... statements, lowlevel debugging, i would use
the ${toString:...} stuff, otherwards if specific delimiter needed
i would use a macrodef/scriptdef with pathconvert as you suggested.

btw. the ant editor of eclipse (using 3.2.2 on Windows) gives a popup
window with the files included when using ${toString:...] and mouse
over. Same behaviour on similar attributes f.e. <javac classpathref="..."

Edit your antscript, save and the popup get's updated, when
mouse over again.

Would be nice to see how they did it ?
I think they have to use the ant api somehow !?

Are there any official api docs available, has anybody
more details about or do i have to dig myself in
org.eclipse. ... ?

Regards, Gilbert
