Hi,
The assign task is already defined for you as part of the
AntXtras antlib. The easiest thing to do is to load the
entire antlib and experiment. *See the Quick Start and
User Guide for additional information*.
Example (assuming at least Ant 1.6.5, and AntXtras bin download
to some local directory '${antextensions.d}/antx'):
[Top-Level]
<path id="antx.classpath">
<fileset dir="${antextensions.d}/antx">
<include name="lib/*.jar"/>
</fileset>
</path>
<taskdef resource="com/idaremedia/antx/install/antlib.xml"
classpathref="antx.classpath"/>
[In any target or macrodef]
<assign var="duration" value="now"/>
...
<assign var="duration" value="-now" .../>
...

Hi
I downloaded the antxtras unility from the site but the two jar files in
that does not contain class file for assign task. SO when I try to run my
script after adding assing task it gave an error that " Problem: failed to
create task or type assign"

I need to find out the time taken by each of the process/target in our
build.xml file. Now for doing this I have use ANT tstamp task to
calculate
the start time and end time of the process. Now my question is how do I
find
out the total time taken by the process, I mean is there any way to
calculate difference between "End time" and "Start time"
Thanks
If you can use thirdparty libraries you can use the AntXtra's
<assign> task like so:
<target name="compile" depends="-init" description="Compile stuff">
<assign var="time" value="now"/>
...[all your compiling tasks here]
<assign var="time" value="-now" transform="duration"
copyproperty="compile.duration"/>
<echo level="info" message="compile took ${compile.duration}"/>
</target>
If you want to do this for lots of your targets you can leverage
macrodefs to do this for every target using something like:
<macrodef name="timedtarget">
<attribute name="name">
<attribute name="functions"/>
<sequential>
<assign var="time_" value="now"/>
<callinline targets="@{functions}"/> <!--do NOT switch projects-->
<assign var="time_" value="-now" transform="duration"
copyproperty="@{name}.duration"/>
<echo level="info" message="@{name} took [EMAIL PROTECTED]"/>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
Then use it like so:
<target name="-compile">
...[all your compiling work here in private target]
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="-init" description="Compile stuff">
<timetarget name="compile" functions="-compile"/>
</target>
AntXtras is at: http://antxtras.sf.net/
Hope that helps.
