Re: Enforcing "depends" order for 3rd-party targets?

I had to update a lot my build scripts in order for them to run in
parallel mode with my own parallel executor. The usual problem was a
missing dependency. Out of normal order execution breaks in random
places and without careful review of all targets, it is difficult to fix
all of them. I was thinking about external target order too, but the
ordering logic became too complex when there are several targets setting
different orders on other targets. For example, clean build could be
"clean;build", meaning first run "clean" and later "build".
Unfortunately usually "clean" and "build" targets depend on other
targets, so the rule should be translated into
{depends(clean) ^ depends(build)} -> {depends(clean) - (depends(clean) ^
depends(build))} -> {depends(build) - (depends(clean) ^ depends(build))}"
This effectively means that all targets in {depends(clean) -
(depends(clean) ^ depends(build))} should depend on all targets in
{depends(clean) ^ depends(build)} And it is assuming that none of
the other targets impose other ordering rules. However it is an
important feature that is required for a real parallel executor. If you
know a solution, please let me know.
- Alexey.
the trouble with before() targets (and target injection) is what if
those targets also have dependencies, life gets very complex.
This is what I do
* Have a base template project with lots of predefined targets that do
nothing (initialized, compile, packaged, tested, published. These
represent 'states' I want the project to be in.
* Have 'ready-to-X' targets for everything that is needed to prepare
before doing the work to enter a state.
In by default, "ready-to-compile" depends on "create-output-dirs". In a
project that does some code generation, the extended project would have
depends="base.ready-to-compile,generate-java-code" />
So I'm effectively adding a 'before' to the compile target by adding it
in to its 'ready-to' predecessor.
One thing I'd like is a way to declare a dependency on all the targets
of another target, but not its work itself. If compile does a javac,
but on one project I don't want that, I can't go

target conditional and dependency issue
I have a target that I only want to execute if a property is set, but it executes the dependencies regardless. The code looks like this: What I have used as a work around is: This works, but it doesn't seem very ANT like. Do folks have a better, way to perform the conditional execution with a dependency list? Thanks, Eric

Re: Enforcing "depends" order for 3rd-party targets?
I just thought of this: The "inheritall" allows the called target to inherit all properties set. This is suppose to be the default. The "inheritrefs" allows for all references to be inherited too. This is false by default. -- David Weintraub [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Mon, Aug 18, 2008 at 5:09 PM, cowwoc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > Give: > > > > how do I guarantee that "internal" gets executed before "external" if > "external" is declared by some 3rd-party script I have no control over (that > is, I can't add depends="internal" to "external"). > > It should be noted that "internal" declares properties that "external" looks > for, so AntCall won't work. > > Thanks, > Gili > -- > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/Enforcing-%22depends%22-order-for-3rd-party-targets--tp19040027p19040027.html > Sent from the Ant - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Enforcing "depends" order for 3rd-party targets?
Yeah, I guess this would work so long as "externals" does not need to return any properties (I think in my case it doesn't).
