|
|---|
| 12 | <h3>Description</h3>
|
|---|
| 13 | <p>Converts a nested <code><path></code> or reference to a Path,
|
|---|
| 14 | FileSet, DirSet, or FileList into a path
|
|---|
| 15 | form for a particular platform, and stores the result in a given property.
|
|---|
| 16 | It can also be used when you need
|
|---|
| 17 | to convert a Path, FileSet, or DirSet into a list, separated by a given
|
|---|
| 18 | character, such as a comma or space, or, conversely, to convert a list
|
|---|
| 19 | of files in a FileList into a path.
|
|---|
| 20 | </p>
|
|---|
| 21 | <p>Nested <code><map></code> elements can be specified to map Windows
|
|---|
| 22 | drive letters to Unix paths, and vice-versa.</p>
|
|---|
| 23 | <p>More complex transformations can be achieved using a nested
|
|---|
| 24 | <a href="../CoreTypes/mapper.html"><code><mapper></code></a>
|
|---|
| 25 | (since Ant 1.6.2).

|

| 110 | <p><strong>Note</strong>: The map elements are applied in the order specified,

| 115 | <h4>path</h4>
|

| 116 | <p>If the <code>refid</code> attribute is not specified, then a

| 119 | <h4>mapper</h4>
|

| 120 | <p>A single nested <a href="../CoreTypes/mapper.html">
|

|

| 125 | <h3>Examples</h3>
|
|---|
| 126 | <p>In the examples below, assume that the <code>${wl.home}</code> property
|
|---|
| 127 | has the value
|
|---|
| 128 | <code>d:\weblogic</code>, and <code>${wl.home.unix}</code> has the value
|
|---|
| 129 | <code>/weblogic</code>.</p>
|
|---|
| 130 | <h4>Example 1</h4>
|
|---|
| 131 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 132 | <path id="wl.path">
|
|---|
| 133 | <pathelement location="${wl.home}/lib/weblogicaux.jar"/>
|
|---|
| 134 | <pathelement location="${wl.home}/classes"/>
|
|---|
| 135 | <pathelement location="${wl.home}/mssqlserver4/classes"/>
|
|---|
| 136 | <pathelement location="c:\winnt\System32"/>
|
|---|
| 137 | </path>
|
|---|
| 138 |
|
|---|
| 139 | <pathconvert targetos="unix" property="wl.path.unix" refid="wl.path">
|
|---|
| 140 | <map from="${wl.home}" to="${wl.home.unix}"/>
|
|---|
| 141 | <map from="c:" to=""/>
|
|---|
| 142 | </pathconvert>
|
|---|
| 143 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 144 | <p> will generate the path shown below
|
|---|
| 145 | and store it in the property named <code>wl.path.unix</code>.
|
|---|
| 146 | </p>
|
|---|
| 147 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 148 | /weblogic/lib/weblogicaux.jar:/weblogic/classes:/weblogic/mssqlserver4/classes:/WINNT/SYSTEM32
|
|---|
| 149 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 150 |
|
|---|
| 151 | <h4>Example 2</h4>
|
|---|
| 152 | Given a FileList defined as:
|
|---|
| 153 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 154 | <filelist id="custom_tasks.jars"
|
|---|
| 155 | dir="${env.HOME}/ant/lib"
|
|---|
| 156 | files="njavac.jar,xproperty.jar"/>
|
|---|
| 157 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 158 | then:
|
|---|
| 159 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 160 | <pathconvert targetos="unix" property="custom_tasks.jars" refid="custom_tasks.jars">
|
|---|
| 161 | <map from="${env.HOME}" to="/usr/local"/>
|
|---|
| 162 | </pathconvert>
|
|---|
| 163 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 164 | will convert the list of files to the following Unix path:
|
|---|
| 165 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 166 | /usr/local/ant/lib/njavac.jar:/usr/local/ant/lib/xproperty.jar
|
|---|
| 167 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 168 |
|
|---|
| 169 | <h4>Example 3</h4>
|
|---|
| 170 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 171 | <fileset dir="${src.dir}" id="src.files">
|
|---|
| 172 | <include name="**/*.java"/>
|
|---|
| 173 | </fileset>
|
|---|
| 174 |
|
|---|
| 175 | <pathconvert pathsep="," property="javafiles" refid="src.files"/>
|
|---|
| 176 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 177 | <p>This example takes the set of files determined by the fileset (all files ending
|
|---|
| 178 | in <tt>.java</tt>), joins them together separated by commas, and places the resulting
|
|---|
| 179 | list into the property <tt>javafiles</tt>. The directory separator is not specified, so
|
|---|
| 180 | it defaults to the appropriate character for the current platform. Such a list could
|
|---|
| 181 | then be used in another task, like <tt>javadoc</tt>, that requires a comma separated
|
|---|
| 182 | list of files.
