| jtidy task operates on a fileset but won 't operate on a single file | jtidy task operates on a fileset but won 't operate on a single file 2007-05-25 - By cknell@(protected)
I am automating a process of turning MS Excel 2000 Workbooks into XSLT files
for producing reports from a database in Excel format.
I am at the point where I'm moving upstream in automating the process. I want
to prep the output from an Excel "Save As HTML" operation as a step in
converting them to XSLT files. So there's the background.
When MS Excel saves a workbook as HTML, it produces what I call a "master" file
and a subdirectory containing HTML files for each worksheet, one for the CSS,
one for the tabstrip that appears at the bottom of a workbook permitting the
user to view and operate on individual worksheets, and an XML file listing all
the worksheets in the workbook.
I have prepared a build.xml file that will operate on all the HTML files in
that subdirectory, doing exactly what I want it to do.
I have not yet been able to get it processes the "master" file which is located
in a level above those.
Look at this directory structure for example:
report
|____ master_file.htm
|____ master_file_files
|_____sheet001.htm
|_____sheet002.htm
|_____sheet003.htm
|_____filelist.xml
|_____tabstrip.htm
|_____stylesheet.css
This is my ant target:
<target name="tidy" depends="init">
<tidy destdir="${base-dir}/tidy" flatten="true">
<fileset dir="${base-dir}">
<include name="**/*.htm"/>
</fileset>
<parameter name="wrap" value="0" />
<parameter name="numeric-entities" value="true" />
</tidy>
</target>
Where the value of ${base.dir} is the complete path to the "report" directory.
The results of running this target are:
1) the "tidy" subdirectory is created in {$base.dir}
2) all of the files with the .htm extension located in master_file_files are
processed and placed in the ${base-dir}/tidy directory
3) master_file.htm is not processed and placed in the ${base-dir}/tidy directory
Item 3 is the fly in the ointment. I cannot understand why this file is ignored
. Can anyone offer an insight?
Thanks.
