I have 2 ant build scripts named "build" and "tarne"
Build:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<project name="build" default="zip">
<property name="project.name" value="projectName"/>
<property name="version" value="default_version_value"/>
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties">
<classpath>
<pathelement location="lib/build/ant-contrib.jar"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
<var name="version2" value="default_version_value"/>
<property name="tmp" value="tmp"/>
<property name="build.dir" location="${tmp}/component/${project.name}"/>
<property name="java.classes" location="${tmp}/component/${project.name}/classes"/>
<property name="weblayout.dir" location="${tmp}/weblayout/resources/${project.name}"/>
<path id="compile.classpath">
<fileset dir="lib" includes="**/*.jar" />
<fileset dir="lib/build" includes="*.zip" />
</path>
<target name="clean">
<delete dir="${tmp}" />
</target>
<target name="init" depends="clean">
<mkdir dir="${java.classes}" />
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="init">
<javac srcdir="src" source="1.5" target="1.5" encoding="utf-8" includes="**/*.java" destdir="${java.classes}" classpathref="compile.classpath" />
</target>
<target name="copy-resources" depends="compile">
//Lots of copying here
</target>
<target name="read.version" description="Parses the hda file for your version number">
<property file="${project.name}.hda" prefix="hda"/>
<propertyregex property="version" input="${hda.version}" regexp="\." replace="-" global="true" override="true"/>
<var name="version2" value="${version}"/>
<echo>${version}</echo>
<echo>${version2}</echo>
</target>
<target name="zip" depends="copy-resources, read.version" description="Package component">
<zip destfile="${project.name}-${version}.zip" basedir="${tmp}" />
<delete dir="${tmp}" />
</target>
</project>
Tarne:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<project default="tarne">
<include file="build.xml"/>
<property name="project.name" value="build.project.name"/>
<target name="tarne">
<antcall target="build.read.version" inheritRefs="true"></antcall>
<property name="version" value="build.version"/>
<property name="version2" value="build.version2"/>
<echo>${version}</echo>
<echo>${version2}</echo>
</target>
</project>
And the output I get when I run tarne.xml is:
Buildfile: tarne.xml
tarne:
build.read.version:
[echo] v1-0-1
[echo] v1-0-1
[echo] default_version_value
[echo] default_version_value
Where the first 2 lines (v1-0-1) are from inside the read.version target of build.xml and the next 2 lines are from tarne.xml. The general idea is that I should be able to access the version number in my tarne.xml build script.
Any ideas on what's going wrong?
Antcall does not support what you intend to do:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/antcall.html :
The called target(s) are run in a new project; be aware that this means properties, references, etc. set by called targets will not persist back to the calling project.
you could try:
<target name="tarne" depends="build.read.version">
</target>
which would keep the new values.
Try
<property name="version" value="${build.version}"/>
<property name="version2" value="${build.version2}"/>

This script gives me this " taskdef class net.sourceforge.pmd.ant.PMDTask cannot be found using the classloader AntClassLoader[]"
I have added PMD library jar file in lib folder of the project,where other libraries are present as jar files.
But if i change add path ref to the library not as a jarfile , it works well.
<path id="pmd.classpath">
<fileset dir="C:\Users\PMD\pmd-bin-5.5.2">
<include name="**/*.jar"/>
</fileset>
</path>
May I know what is the problem? I am pretty new to ANT and PMD , any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
First thing to check is the file pmd-core-*.jar in your lib directory?
Secondly add a reference to the path in the taskdef task:
<taskdef name="pmd" classname="net.sourceforge.pmd.ant.PMDTask" classpathref="classpath"/>
Below is my build.xml file for ant.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="Struts2ProductsDemo" default="jar">
<property name="src.dir" location="src" />
<property name="build.dir" location="L:\build" />
<property name="project.name" value="Struts2ProductsDemo" />

<delete dir="${build.dir}" />

</target>
<target name="jar" depends="compile">
<jar destfile="${build.jar}/jars/${project.name}.jar" basedir="${build.dir}/classes" />
</target>
The jar files are created in: C:\Users\San\EclipseWS\Struts2ProductsDemo\${build.jar}\jars\Struts2ProductsDemo.jar
I am expecting the jar to be here: ${build.jar}/jars/${project.name}.jar
Property build.jar is never set. You have to define it. For example, you may add this to your build:
<property name="build.jar" location="target"/>
I was trying to run my build through Ant tool but console output always shows this error :
**E:\Automation\PowerElectronicsWorkShop\FreesunPortal\build.xml:31: srcdir "E:\Automation\PowerElectronicsWorkShop\FreesunPortal\${src.dir}" does not exist!

I don't understand why this is occurring every time.
Add Following code under property tag
<property name="src.dir" location="src" />
<property name="build.dir" location="bin" />
Now you can re build your code through ANT, it will work.
Below is a simplified versin of a build.xml for a Java project. It completes "build" correctly (creates the correct .class files) and prints out "Finishing build". It does not, however, print out "Starting jar". What am I not understanding? The target "jar" depends on "build", so it should be run next.
Running it with target release.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="Project" basedir="." default="release">
<!-- directories -->
<property name="src.dir" location="src/main/java"/>
<property name="cls.dir" location="private/classes"/>
<property name="lib.dir" location="lib"/>
<property name="jar.name" value="${ant.project.name}-${jar.ver}.jar"/>
<target name="clean" description="Delete all generated files">
<delete dir="${cls.dir}"/>
<delete dir="${lib.dir}"/>
</target>
<target name="build" depends="clean">
<mkdir dir="${cls.dir}"/>
<javac
destdir="${cls.dir}"
nowarn="off"
fork="yes"
debug="on">
<classpath>
<path path="${run.classpath}"/>
</classpath>
<src path="${src.dir}"/>
</javac>
<echo message="Finishing build"/>
</target>
<target name="jar" depends="build">
<echo message="Starting jar"/>
<mkdir dir="${lib.dir}"/>
<jar destfile="${lib.dir}/${jar.name}">
<fileset dir="${cls.dir}"/>
<fileset dir="${src.dir}" includes="**/*.properties"/>
<fileset dir="${src.dir}" includes="**/*.xml"/>
</jar>
</target>
<target name="release" depends="jar" description="Entry point">
</target>
</project>
Update the release target as follows to note that release depends on build then jar. i.e. depends="build,jar"
i.e.
<target name="release" depends="build,jar" description="Entry point">
<echo message="release ..."/>
</target>
Let me explain the scenario:
D:\project\src\one.txt
D:\project\src\two.txt
D:\project\src\three.txt
D:\project\src\four.txt
The above files should be copied as :
D:\project\dst\one.xls
D:\project\dst\two.xls
D:\project\dst\three.xls
D:\project\dst\four.xls
I need to change the extension without using the mapper and move task. I need to rename as above using a for loop with fte:filecopy function inside. Is this possible ???
For anyone arriving here without the negative requirement afflicting the OP, the much simpler answer is to use a mapper.
<project default="move_files">
<target name="move_files">
<copy todir="dst">
<fileset dir="src">
<include name="*.txt"/>
</fileset>
<globmapper from="*.txt" to="*.xls"/>
</copy>
</target>
</project>
This works for me :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="so-copy-rename" default="build2">
<property name="ant-contrib-jar" value="${user.home}/.ant/lib/ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar"/>
<target name="setup" unless="ant-contrib.present">
<echo>Getting ant-contrib</echo>
<mkdir dir="${user.home}/.ant/lib"/>
<!--
Note: change this to a locally hosted maven repository manager such as nexus http://nexus.sonatype.org/
-->
<get dest="${ant-contrib-jar}"
src="http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/ant-contrib/ant-contrib/1.0b3/ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar"/>
</target>
<target name="taskdefs">
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml">
<classpath>
<pathelement location="${ant-contrib-jar}"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
</target>
<target name="build" depends="taskdefs">
<property name="srcdir" value="src"/>
<property name="targetdir" value="target"/>
<property name="files" value="file1,file2,file3,file4"/>
<mkdir dir="${targetdir}"/>
<foreach list="${files}" target="copy-rename" param="srcfile" trim="true">
<param name="srcdir" value="${srcdir}" />
<param name="targetdir" value="${targetdir}" />
</foreach>
</target>
<target name="copy-rename">
<var name="src-suffix" value="txt"/>
<var name="tgt-suffix" value="xls"/>
<copy file="${srcdir}/${srcfile}.${src-suffix}" tofile="${targetdir}/${srcfile}.${tgt-suffix}" />
</target>
<target name="build2" depends="taskdefs">
<property name="srcdir" value="src"/>
<property name="targetdir" value="target"/>
<mkdir dir="${targetdir}"/>
<foreach target="copy-rename2" param="srcfile">
<path id="srcfilepath">
<fileset dir="${srcdir}" casesensitive="yes">
<include name="*.txt"/>
</fileset>
</path>
<param name="targetdir" value="${targetdir}" />
</foreach>
</target>
<target name="copy-rename2">
<var name="basefile" value="" unset="true"/>
<basename property="basefile" file="${srcfile}" suffix=".txt"/>
<var name="tgt-suffix" value="xls"/>
<copy file="${srcfile}" tofile="${targetdir}/${basefile}.${tgt-suffix}" />
</target>
</project>
Can you slice it the other way and perform the renaming inside the fte:filecopy command? Looking at the IBM documentation, you can specify tasks to be carried out at the source or destination agents either before or after the copy, using presrc, postdst etc. This task could be an Ant task that does the renaming?
