addBuildListener

public void addBuildListener(
String className)

Adds a build listener. The parameter className is the class name of an org.apache.tools.ant.BuildListener implementation. The class will be instantiated at runtime and the listener will be called on build events (org.apache.tools.ant.BuildEvent).

Refer to Usage Note for implementation details.

Parameters:

className - a build listener class name

addBuildLogger

public void addBuildLogger(
String className)

Sets the build logger. The parameter className is the class name of an org.apache.tools.ant.BuildLogger implementation. The class will be instantiated at runtime and the logger will be called on build events (org.apache.tools.ant.BuildEvent). Only one build logger is permitted for any build.

Refer to Usage Note for implementation details.

Parameters:

className - a build logger class name

addUserProperties

public void addUserProperties(
Map properties)

Adds user-defined properties. Keys and values must be String objects.

Parameters:

properties - a Map of user-defined properties

getAvailableTargets

public 
TargetInfo[] getAvailableTargets()
                                 throws 
CoreException

Returns the buildfile target information.

Returns:

an array containing the target information

Throws:

CoreException - Thrown if problem is encountered determining the targets

Since:

2.1

TargetInfo

run

public void run(
IProgressMonitor monitor)
         throws 
CoreException

Runs the build file. If a progress monitor is specified it will be available during the script execution as a reference in the Ant Project (org.apache.tools.ant.Project.getReferences()). A long- running task could, for example, get the monitor during its execution and check for cancellation. The key value to retrieve the progress monitor instance is AntCorePlugin.ECLIPSE_PROGRESS_MONITOR. Only one build can occur at any given time. Sets the current threads context class loader to the AntClassLoader for the duration of the build.

Parameters:

monitor - a progress monitor, or null if progress reporting and cancellation are not desired

Throws:

CoreException - Thrown if a build is already occurring or if an exception occurs during the build

handleInvocationTargetException

protected void handleInvocationTargetException(
Object runner,
                                               
Class classInternalAntRunner,
                                               
InvocationTargetException e)
                                        throws 
CoreException

Throws:

CoreException

problemLoadingClass

protected void problemLoadingClass(
Throwable e)
                            throws 
CoreException

Throws:

CoreException

run

public void run()
         throws 
CoreException

Runs the build file.

Throws:

CoreException - Thrown if a build is already occurring or if an exception occurs during the build

run

public 
Object run(
Object argArray)
           throws 
Exception

Invokes the building of a project object and executes a build using either a given target or the default target. This method is called when running Eclipse headless and specifying org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner as the application. Sets the current threads context class loader to the AntClassLoader for the duration of the build.

Parameters:

argArray - the command line arguments

Returns:

an exit object (EXIT_OK) indicating normal termination if no exception occurs

Throws:

Exception - if a problem occurred during the buildfile execution

setInputHandler

public void setInputHandler(
String className)

Sets the input handler. The parameter className is the class name of an org.apache.tools.ant.input.InputHandler implementation. The class will be instantiated at runtime and the input handler will be used to respond to <input> requests Only one input handler is permitted for any build.

Refer to Usage Note for implementation details.

Parameters:

className - an input handler class name

Since:

2.1

setPropertyFiles

public void setPropertyFiles(

2.1

start

public 
Object start(
IApplicationContext context)
             throws 
Exception

Invokes the building of a project object and executes a build using either a given target or the default target. This method is called when running Eclipse headless and specifying org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner as the application. Sets the current threads context class loader to the AntClassLoader for the duration of the build.

Specified by:

start in interface IApplication

Parameters:

context - the context used to start the application

Returns:

an exit object (EXIT_OK) indicating normal termination if no exception occurs

Throws:

Exception - if a problem occurred during the buildfile execution

See Also:

IApplication.start(IApplicationContext)

stop

public void stop()

Description copied from interface: IApplication

Forces this running application to exit. This method should wait until the running application is ready to exit. The IApplication.start(IApplicationContext) should already have exited or should exit very soon after this method exits

This method is only called to force an application to exit. This method will not be called if an application exits normally from the IApplication.start(IApplicationContext) method.

Note: This method is called by the platform; it is not intended to be called directly by clients.

Specified by:

stop in interface IApplication
