- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### AbstractArchiveTask

          public AbstractArchiveTask()

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getArchiveName

          public String getArchiveName()

      Returns the archive name. If the name has not been explicitly set, the pattern for the name is: `[baseName]-[appendix]-[version]-[classifier].[extension]`
      Returns:
        the archive name.

    - #### setArchiveName

          public void setArchiveName(String name)

      Sets the archive name.
      Parameters:
        `name` - the archive name.

    - #### getArchivePath

          @OutputFile
          public File getArchivePath()

      The path where the archive is constructed. The path is simply the `destinationDir` plus the `archiveName`.
      Returns:
        a File object with the path to the archive

    - #### getDestinationDir

          public File getDestinationDir()

      Returns the directory where the archive is generated into.
      Returns:
        the directory

    - #### setDestinationDir

          public void setDestinationDir(File destinationDir)

    - #### getBaseName

          public String getBaseName()

      Returns the base name of the archive.
      Returns:
        the base name.

    - #### setBaseName

          public void setBaseName(String baseName)

    - #### getAppendix

          public String getAppendix()

      Returns the appendix part of the archive name, if any.
      Returns:
        the appendix. May be null

    - #### setAppendix

          public void setAppendix(String appendix)

    - #### getVersion

          public String getVersion()

      Returns the version part of the archive name, if any.
      Returns:
        the version. May be null.

    - #### setVersion

          public void setVersion(String version)

    - #### getExtension

          public String getExtension()

      Returns the extension part of the archive name.

    - #### setExtension

          public void setExtension(String extension)

    - #### getClassifier

          public String getClassifier()

      Returns the classifier part of the archive name, if any.
      Returns:
        The classifier. May be null.

    - #### setClassifier

          public void setClassifier(String classifier)

    - #### into

          public AbstractArchiveTask into(Object destPath)

      Specifies the destination directory *inside* the archive for the files. The destination is evaluated as per `Project.file(Object)`. Don't mix it up with `getDestinationDir()` which specifies the output directory for the archive.
      Specified by:
        `into` in interface `CopyProcessingSpec`
      Specified by:
        `into` in interface `CopySpec`
      Overrides:
        `into` in class `AbstractCopyTask`
      Parameters:
        `destPath` - destination directory *inside* the archive for the files
      Returns:
        this

    - #### into

          public AbstractArchiveTask into(Object destPath,
                                 Closure configureClosure)

      Creates and configures a child `CopySpec` with a destination directory *inside* the archive for the files. The destination is evaluated as per `Project.file(Object)`. Don't mix it up with `getDestinationDir()` which specifies the output directory for the archive.
      Specified by:
        `into` in interface `CopySpec`
      Overrides:
        `into` in class `AbstractCopyTask`
      Parameters:
        `destPath` - destination directory *inside* the archive for the files
        `configureClosure` - The closure to use to configure the child `CopySpec`.
      Returns:
        this
