          groovy.util.AntBuilder

All Implemented Interfaces:

GroovyObject

public class AntBuilder
extends BuilderSupport

Allows Ant tasks to be used with a Groovy builder-style markup. Requires that {{ant.jar}} is on your classpath which will happen automatically if you are using the Groovy distribution but will be up to you to organize if you are embedding Groovy. If you wish to use the optional tasks you will need to add one or more additional jars from the ant distribution to your classpath - see the library dependencies for more details.

Method Detail

getProject

public org.apache.tools.ant.Project getProject()

# Gets the Ant project in which the tasks are executed

Returns:

the project

getAntXmlContext

public org.apache.tools.ant.helper.AntXMLContext getAntXmlContext()

Gets the xml context of Ant used while creating tasks

Returns:

the Ant xml context

createProject

protected static org.apache.tools.ant.Project createProject()

Returns:

Factory method to create new Project instances

setParent

protected void setParent(java.lang.Object parent,
                         java.lang.Object child)

Specified by:

setParent in class BuilderSupport

doInvokeMethod

protected java.lang.Object doInvokeMethod(java.lang.String methodName,
                                          java.lang.Object name,
                                          java.lang.Object args)

We don't want to return the node as created in createNode(Object, Map, Object) but the one made ready by nodeCompleted(Object, Object)

Overrides:

doInvokeMethod in class BuilderSupport

See Also:

BuilderSupport.doInvokeMethod(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object)

nodeCompleted

protected void nodeCompleted(java.lang.Object parent,
                             java.lang.Object node)

Determines, when the ANT Task that is represented by the "node" should perform. Node must be an ANT Task or no "perform" is called. If node is an ANT Task, it performs right after complete construction. If node is nested in a TaskContainer, calling "perform" is delegated to that TaskContainer.

Overrides:

nodeCompleted in class BuilderSupport

Parameters:

parent - note: null when node is root

node - the node that now has all its children applied

createNode

protected java.lang.Object createNode(java.lang.Object tagName)

Specified by:

createNode in class BuilderSupport

createNode

protected java.lang.Object createNode(java.lang.Object name,
                                      java.lang.Object value)

Specified by:

createNode in class BuilderSupport

createNode

protected java.lang.Object createNode(java.lang.Object name,
                                      java.util.Map attributes,
                                      java.lang.Object value)

Specified by:

createNode in class BuilderSupport

buildAttributes

protected static org.xml.sax.Attributes buildAttributes(java.util.Map attributes)

Builds an Attributes from a Map

Parameters:

attributes - the attributes to wrap

Returns:

the wrapped attributes

                                      java.util.Map attributes)

Specified by:

createNode in class BuilderSupport

setText

protected void setText(java.lang.Object task,
                       java.lang.String text)
