| Copy jars mensioned in classpath | Copy jars mensioned in classpath 2003-03-24 - By Dominique Devienne
I'm afraid not directly.... At least I can't think of one. In your
situation, I'd write a <script> that creates that populates a copy tasks
with every file of a Path, feeding a <fileset file="thefile"/> for each
entry in Path#list() to <copy> (which accepts several filesets).
Alternatively, if all your JARs are commonly rooted (have the same basedir,
hopefully not the filesystem root!), you could somehow define a <fileset> of
them, to be used in the <path> and <copy>, but then it's unordered...
Like I said, not the ideal situation... --DD

Subject: [newbie] Copy jars mensioned in classpath
Hi,
my application is based on several other Java libraries. These are defined
in an
external property file, e.g.
foo.jar.foo1=${foo.dir}/foo1.jar
foo.jar.foo2=${foo.dir}/foo2.jar
foo.path=${foo.jar.foo1}:${foo.jar.foo2}
bar.jar.bar=${bar.dir}/bar.jar
bar.path=${bar.jar.bar}
you got the pattern ...
In the build.xml I am now able to use this definitions like:
<path id="classpath">
<pathelement path="${foo.path}" />
<pathelement path="${bar.path}" />
</path>
<target name="compile">
<mkdir dir="${build.dir}" />
<javac srcdir="${src.java}"
destdir="${build.dir}"
classpathref="classpath" >
</javac>
</target>
Works fine.
Now I want to copy the jars used in the classpath to a distribution
directory,
but I did not find a solution using the copy-task to define a fileset based
on
the definitions made above, since every definition could contain more than
one
jar file separated by a colon. Is there any task or a fileset construct,
that
enables me to get the jars from the involved classpath in a fileset?
Regards,
J?rg
