Hi Jim,
I just tried to get adapt my build file to your suggestions,
but unfortunately I failed....again....
It seems that my antcontrib.jar can be found, but the <for> command is unknown :
C:\ANT-TEST\produktion.xml:80: Could not create task or type of type: for.
Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
My build file looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<project name="Content Produktion" default="GLP_Legislation" basedir=".">
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties">
<classpath>
<pathelement
location="C:\Programme\ant\lib\ant-contrib.jar"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
<property name="jar.saxon" location="C:\Programme\Saxon\saxon8.jar"/>
<macrodef name="transform">
<attribute name="src"/>
<attribute name="dest"/>
<attribute name="style"/>
<sequential>
<mkdir dir="@{dest}"/>
<uptodate property="transform.notRequired">
<srcfiles dir="@{src}" includes="**/*.xml"/>
<mapper type="merge" to="@{dest}/**/*.html"/>
</uptodate>
<if>
<equals arg1="${transform.notRequired}"
arg2="true"/>
<then>Transform not required</then>
<else>
<xslt in="@{src}" out="@{dest}"
style="@{style}" extension=".html" includes="**.xml" basedir=".">
<outputproperty name="method"
value="xml"/>
<outputproperty
name="standalone" value="yes"/>
<outputproperty name="encoding"
value="iso8859_1"/>
<outputproperty name="indent"
value="yes"/>
<classpath>
<pathelement
location="${jar.saxon}"/>
</classpath>
</xslt>
</else>
</if>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
<target name="process_GLP_Legislation" description="Do all XSLT
transformations">
<for param="file">
<path>
<fileset dir="source" includes="*.xml"/>
</path>
<sequential>
<transform src="@{file}" dest="added"
style="stylesheets/add_versioning_information.xslt"/>
</sequential>
</for>
</target>
</project>
I also set the antcontrib.jar to my classpath.....
Did I use the <for> in a wrong place?
wbr,
Roman
