I wanted to pass some function arguments to the function public void execute()
which is a basic entry point to a class from the Java code when we use <taskdef>
in Ant. So my question is can we able to pass arguments to a function with <taskdef>
in Ant if so how to pass the parameters to the function.
Providing below my sample Ant code and Java code that needs to be modified.
Code for build.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<project name="MyTask" basedir="." default="use">
<target name="use" description="Use the Task" depends="jar">
<taskdef name="helloworld" classname="HelloWorld" classpath="HelloWorld.jar"/>
<helloworld/>
</target>
<!-- invoking java files by java task -->
<target name="javatask">
<java fork="true" failonerror="yes" classname="HelloWorld.class"/>
</target>
<target name="jar" depends="compile">
<jar destfile="HelloWorld.jar"
basedir="."/>
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="clean">
<javac srcdir="." destdir="." includeantruntime="false"/>
</target>
<target name="clean">
<delete file="HelloWorld.jar"/>
</target>
</project>
HelloWorld.java
public class HelloWorld {
public void execute() {
System.out.println("Hello World first function");
}
}
I need to pass a function argument to execute() function. How can I achieve this?
