Everywhere i go, i see that there is a lot of people (like me) thinking that
the existing build tools are extremely useful (ant in first;-) ). But still,
a lot of people think that something else should be possible.
I have thus started a forum in order to collect info from the "builder
community"

In my Ant task, I'm loading up a class using Class.forName() and pass

Hello,
how do you run this programatically ?
one common source of null pointer exceptions in Ant API use is to forget to set
a project reference on task objects or datatypes. The null pointer exception
happens then as soon as the task or the datatype tries to log something.

I completely agree. I too fought the urge to use ant contrib for the
same reasons (I was bent on stock ant). But, if you use ant like you
might use a shell script, ant contrib makes perfect sense. Its a
"small" dependency andmake your build.xml much cleaner and easier to
understand.

1) Simply add the unless ="target.var" directly to compute-target.var,
if the latter doesn't have any dependencies (or copy the content of

2) Convert compute-target.var to a macro, which share the Project

I'm developing a backup routing with ant, and I need to create the backup

The tstamp task with the format nested element does this. Read its

Hello Marcelo,
setting an environment variable from ant is possible using the exec task. Using
a nested element (see the doc). The new environment variable is only visible
for the one particular program started by the exec task.
similarly, the task can set env vars, this only when you fork jav

Hi Antoine, thanks a lot for the reply!
I actually solved the problem using the task! I'll keep those other
possibilities in mind, they might come in handy ;)

Very interesting stuff. I will definitely use your tasks for my own
