C preprocessor driven from ANT?
Hi Does anyone know of a pure-Java pre-processor that can handle c-style multiple #include and nested #defines? Our DB build is preceded by the SQL being subject to some C-style pre-processing before the stored procs are run into the DB. Our DB build is done outside of ANT using make at the moment but the only barrier to driving it from ANT is the fact that this C-style pre-processing has to take place. Obviously I'm after a pure-Java implementation so that I don't have to worry about cross-platform issues, otherwise I'd just exec a resident native binary pre-processor.

RE: C preprocessor driven from ANT?
I once used gcc for this purpose. You can just run the pre-processor and save the output. I also have used m4. It's a bit more powerful than gcc and is language agnostic. I have since bagged both of those and use ant's filterchains. I use the ExpandProperties and ReplaceTokens filterchains instead of #defines. I use the ConcatFilter filterchain or the Concat task instead of #includes. -Original Message- From: Tim Gordon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 8:30 AM To: user@ant.apache.org Subject: C preprocessor driven from ANT?

Re: AW: How to detect missing jars in a ?
To add to the discussion, one way I might do this from
current Ant svn (longer than necessary but including
info):
Note that you would have to use some mechanism for
accessing the not and exists resourceselectors, e.g.
(with)
or
failure only, no properties or info (actually
longer!):
So we could keep adding more, but we already have > 1
way to do this in HEAD.

ant-contrib foreach performance
I have a task which runs on a list of >1000 strings, and calls an ant task which extracts 2 sub-strings, interprets them as numbers, calculates their sum, and replaces the 2 sub-strings with their sum (this is done by writing the sub-strings to a properties file, loading it and using the task). The problem is that running the task so many times, even on an empty task which doesn't do anything, takes a long time (over a minute). So: 1) Is there a more efficient way to accomplish iteration over a list? 2) Is there a way to perform such a math operation in a regular regex replacement, without using a foreach iteration?

Expanding ALL properties manually
Hi. I'm writing an ant task that loads an external xml file. I want the user to be able to use standard ant properties in this file. Is there an easy way to pass the xml as a string to some method and have it return the xml as a string with any/all ant properties expanded?

Re: ant-contrib foreach performance
Try using the task. The task has the overhead of having to re-load the build file as it runs the target. The task uses macrodefs and should be much faster. Also if you have such a well-defined complex usage it may make sense to create a custom task and drop into a compiled language (like JAVA) to accomplish what you need.

javadoc
I've actually used ant for quite sometime, but I've never messed with it
enough at the same time to get truly proficient.
At any rate, I've been using ant to build a library for me for sometime
and now I need to get the javadoc working. Here is my directory structure.
heavyweight+
+gui
+io
+re
+util
The heavyweight directory contains only the build.xml. All source files
are located in the subs. Here is my javadoc:
sourcepath="${src}"
defaultexcludes="yes"
destdir="docs/api"
author="true"
version="true"
use="true"
windowtitle="Heavyweight API">
href="http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.5/docs/api/";
packagelistLoc="/tmp"/>
href="http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/products/xml/docs/api/"/>
I though this was OK, but when I build it, I get:
doc:
BUILD FAILED
C:\src\heavyweight\build.xml:120: No source files and no packages have
been specified.
Line 120 is the end of the javadoc tag. Can someone steer me in the
right direction here?
Thanks.

help with copy and glob mapper
We have a series of templates in a particular directory and I was hoping to use copy/glob mapper/expand properties in order to move them into the build directory AND rename them. At a point, the directory paths are identical, so what I was hoping to do is something like this: But for whatever reason, this only picks up files at the top level (things in source, but not source/somesubdir/someotherdir).

Problems with building a servlet that refers an EJB
I am having problems with classpath, when trying to
compile an EJB. I am obviously missing the obvious :--), but I have gone
over the classpath setting a number of times and am not able to see the
error. Should I copy the ejb.jar to WEB-INF/lib ? I did try copying
the package to the WEB-INF/classes dir to no avail.
I must be missing the obvious
Any suggestions welcome
The directory structure is

Getting the drive letter and setting windows path
Hi All,
I have two questions and I would really appreciate your assistance.
1. How do I get the drive letter which ant is running from (under windows of
course)?
Something like getting the first char of ${basedir} is good enough for
me (I think...)
2. Is there a way to set the windows path through ant? It doesn't have to be
permanent,
I just want to append a dir to the windows path during the running of ant
(because of a DLL issue).
I tried to use the exec task but it didn't work: I couldn't execute 'set'
because it is not
an executable file and if I execute 'cmd.exe' with arguments 'set
Path=...' , then the path
is only changed in the cmd.exe process and not outside of it (the change
is not visible
to ant after cmd.exe has ended).
Thank you very much for any help you can offer,
Michael

You can do it using from ant-contrib
or if you want pure Ant solution you can use the
following :
@{absPath}
$${drive} is ${drive}
There may be some trick with as well.

I suppose you are calling a windows command with
. You can use 's nested element and
pass through it the desired env variable.
Hope this helps

Re: Getting the drive letter and setting windows path
Hi Ivan, Thank you very much for your help. I will try ant-contrib and your macro and hopefully it will solve my first problem. > I suppose you are calling a windows command with > . You can use 's nested element and > pass through it the desired env variable. > > Actually, Ant runs a task that launches a java app which loads a DLL which itself loads more DLL's The first DLL load is not a problem (I'm just passing java.library.path to the JVM) but when that DLL tries to loads the other DLL's, it searches them in the windows path (this is a normal behavior which has nothing to do with Java / Ant). So what I want is to append the DLL's dir to the windows path just before I run the task but it has to be done in the same process of Ant in order to be visible to the first DLL (which runs in a child process created by the Ant task). I hope that's clear enough. Any other ideas how to set the path through Ant? Thanks, Michael

H, I'm no expert but it looks like your mapper needs to reflect the arbitrary directory depth by using **. Can't lay my hands on any tested example code but see if some combination like this is helpful: or something like that, add stars or subtract stars to suit your particular need. and if that doesn't work, try pulling a little deeper in your fileset if you don't have too many files. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Otherwise there are a couple of preprocessor tasks listed on Ant's external tasks page. You could try to use your own filterreader which would force you to re-implement the pieces of logic required for your scripts, which might not be that much (keeping track of defines, very simple conditionals, swallowing lines and including other files). I'm not aware of existing solutions here. And like Brian said, you can always run gcc's preprocessor stand-alone. A quick look over the ant-contrib cc tasks reveals that they don't support running the compiler without compiling.

Yes, good advice, in particular writing a task to do it. You can write a task using scripting languages as well, see Ant's scriptdef task.

Ant's HEAD has a loadresource task which loads a property fom arbitrary resources (and supports filterchains). Strings and properties are resources in HEAD as well.

run ant -debug and see which directories get scanned for Java files
and which directories are included.
Each entry in sourcepath will be the root directory of a .

Can't you use Ant to resolve the directory to your DLL using ? Ant knows how to resolve the file and create an absolute path using the correct drive letter so you wouldn't have to do so.

This is because your other files are not matched by the glob pattern (they don't start with "template" but the directory path leading up to it. You need to preserve the directory structure, right? Otherwise you could use chained mappers and flatten the file names first.
