I just started playing around with a script task, and ran into a weird problem. I'm using the script in a build file that's imported into other build files using the <import> task, i.e., build.xml imports import.xml at the beginning of the build.xml file (right after the <project> node opening).
Inside import.xml I've got a <macrodef> that calls the <script> task. The script task is language="javascript". I have bsf.jar and js.jar in my Ant lib/. The script is extremely simple, it's just converting a date stamp from one format to another. When I put a simple target in my import.xml and call my macro, and a execute that target using "ant -f import.xml run-macro", everything works fine. If I make a call to that macro from build.xml, I get this error: C:\Projects\build.xml:675: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\Projects\import.xml:80: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\Projects\import.xml:54: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\Projects\import.xml:24: ConversionError: The undefined value has no properties. If I remove all of the lines in the JavaScript the build works (well, it gets to the point where it needed the results of that script); if I have just one line, and importClass statement, I get this error. My guess is that the project context is not being passed correctly into the import/macrodef/script chain, because the Script.java source has these lines in execute(): runner.addBeans(getProject().getProperties()); runner.addBeans(getProject().getUserProperties()); runner.addBeans(getProject().getTargets()); runner.addBeans(getProject().getReferences()); runner.addBean("project", getProject()); runner.addBean("self", this); But I don't really know. Anyone have any ideas?
