Method Detail

addDefinition

protected void addDefinition(java.lang.ClassLoader al,
                             String name,
                             String classname)
                      throws BuildException

Add a definition using the attributes of Definer

Parameters:

al - the ClassLoader to use

name - the name of the definition

classname - the classname of the definition

Throws:

BuildException - if an error occurs

execute

public void execute()
             throws BuildException

Run the definition.

Overrides:

execute in class Task

Throws:

BuildException - if an error occurs

getClassname

public String getClassname()

Returns the classname of the object we are defining. May be null.

Returns:

the class name

getFile

public File getFile()

Returns:

the file containing definitions

getName

public String getName()

Returns:

the name for this definition

getResource

public String getResource()

Returns:

the resource containing definitions

loadProperties

protected void loadProperties(java.lang.ClassLoader al,
                              URL url)

Load type definitions as properties from a URL.

Parameters:

al - the classloader to use

url - the url to get the definitions from

makeResourceFromURI

public static String makeResourceFromURI(String uri)

This is where the logic to map from a URI to an antlib resource is kept.

Parameters:

uri - the xml namespace uri that to convert.

Returns:

the name of a resource. It may not exist

setAdapter

public void setAdapter(String adapter)

Set the class name of the adapter class. An adapter class is used to proxy the definition class. It is used if the definition class is not assignable to the adaptto class, or if the adaptto class is not present.

Parameters:

adapter - the name of the adapter class

setAdapterClass

protected void setAdapterClass(Class<?> adapterClass)

Set the adapter class.

Parameters:

adapterClass - the class to use to adapt the definition class

setAdaptTo

public void setAdaptTo(String adaptTo)

Set the classname of the class that the definition must be compatible with, either directly or by use of the adapter class.

Parameters:

adaptTo - the name of the adaptto class

setAdaptToClass

protected void setAdaptToClass(Class<?> adaptToClass)

Set the class for adaptToClass, to be used by derived classes, used instead of the adaptTo attribute.

Parameters:

adaptToClass - the class for adaptor.

setAntlib

public void setAntlib(String antlib)

Antlib attribute, sets resource and uri. uri is set the antlib value and, resource is set to the antlib.xml resource in the classpath. For example antlib="antlib:org.acme.bland.cola" corresponds to uri="antlib:org.acme.bland.cola" resource="org/acme/bland/cola/antlib.xml". ASF Bugzilla Bug 31999

Parameters:

antlib - the value to set.

setClassname

public void setClassname(String classname)

The full class name of the object being defined. Required, unless file or resource have been specified.

Parameters:
