Constructor Detail

XSLTProcess

public XSLTProcess()

Creates a new XSLTProcess Task.

Method Detail

setScanIncludedDirectories

public void setScanIncludedDirectories(boolean b)

Whether to style all files in the included directories as well; optional, default is true.

Parameters:

b - true if files in included directories are processed.

Since:

Ant 1.5

setReloadStylesheet

public void setReloadStylesheet(boolean b)

Controls whether the stylesheet is reloaded for every transform

Setting this to true may get around a bug in certain Xalan-J versions, default is false.

Since:

Ant 1.5.2

execute

public void execute()
             throws BuildException

Executes the task.

Overrides:

execute in class Task

Throws:

BuildException - if there is an execution problem.

To do:

validate that if either in or our is defined, then both are

setForce

public void setForce(boolean force)

Set whether to check dependencies, or always generate; optional, default is false.

Parameters:

force - true if always generate.

setBasedir

public void setBasedir(java.io.File dir)

Set the base directory; optional, default is the project's basedir.

Parameters:

dir - the base directory

setDestdir

public void setDestdir(java.io.File dir)

Set the destination directory into which the XSL result files should be copied to; required, unless in and out are specified.

Parameters:

dir - the name of the destination directory

setExtension

public void setExtension(java.lang.String name)

Set the desired file extension to be used for the target; optional, default is html.

Parameters:

name - the extension to use

setStyle

public void setStyle(java.lang.String xslFile)

Name of the stylesheet to use - given either relative to the project's basedir or as an absolute path; required.

Parameters:

xslFile - the stylesheet to use

setClasspath

public void setClasspath(Path classpath)

Set the optional classpath to the XSL processor

Parameters:

classpath - the classpath to use when loading the XSL processor

createClasspath

public Path createClasspath()

Set the optional classpath to the XSL processor

Returns:

a path instance to be configured by the Ant core.

setClasspathRef

public void setClasspathRef(Reference r)

Set the reference to an optional classpath to the XSL processor

Parameters:

r - the id of the Ant path instance to act as the classpath for loading the XSL processor

setProcessor

public void setProcessor(java.lang.String processor)

Set the name of the XSL processor to use; optional, default trax. Other values are "xalan" for Xalan1 and "xslp" for XSL:P, though the later is strongly deprecated.
