- Enclosing class:
- ClasspathUtils
 
 public static class ClasspathUtils.Delegate extends java.lang.ObjectDelegate that helps out any specific ProjectComponent that needs dynamic classloading.Ant ProjectComponents that need a to be able to dynamically load Classes and instantiate them often expose the following ant syntax sugar: - nested <classpath>
- attribute @classpathref
- attribute @classname
 This class functions as a delegate handling the configuration issues for this recurring pattern. Its usage pattern, as the name suggests, is delegation rather than inheritance. - Since:
- Ant 1.6

Method Detail- 
setClasspathpublic void setClasspath(Path classpath) This method is a Delegate method handling the @classpath attribute.This attribute can set a path to add to the classpath. - Parameters:
- classpath- the path to use for the classpath.
 
 - 
createClasspathpublic Path createClasspath() Delegate method handling the <classpath> tag.This nested path-like structure can set a path to add to the classpath. - Returns:
- the created path.
 
 - 
setClassnamepublic void setClassname(java.lang.String fcqn) Delegate method handling the @classname attribute.This attribute sets the full qualified class name of the class to load and instantiate. - Parameters:
- fcqn- the name of the class to load.
 
 - 
setClasspathrefpublic void setClasspathref(Reference r) Delegate method handling the @classpathref attribute.This attribute can add a referenced path-like structure to the classpath. - Parameters:
- r- the reference to the classpath.
 
 - 
setReverseLoaderpublic void setReverseLoader(boolean reverseLoader) Delegate method handling the @reverseLoader attribute.This attribute can set a boolean indicating that the used classloader should NOT follow the classical parent-first scheme. By default this is supposed to be false. Caution: this behaviour is contradictory to the normal way classloaders work. Do not let your ProjectComponent use it if you are not really sure. - Parameters:
- reverseLoader- if true reverse the order of looking up a class.
 
 - 
setLoaderRefpublic void setLoaderRef(Reference r) Sets the loaderRef.- Parameters:
- r- the reference to the loader.
 
 - 
getClassLoaderpublic java.lang.ClassLoader getClassLoader() Finds or creates the classloader for this object.- Returns:
- The class loader.
 
 - 
getClassLoadIdpublic java.lang.String getClassLoadId() Computes the loaderId based on the configuration of the component.- Returns:
- a loader identifier.
 
 - 
newInstancepublic java.lang.Object newInstance() Helper method obtaining a fresh instance of the class specified in the @classname and using the specified classpath.- Returns:
- the fresh instantiated object.
 
 - 
getClasspathpublic Path getClasspath() The classpath.- Returns:
- the classpath.
 
 - 
isReverseLoaderpublic boolean isReverseLoader() Get the reverseLoader setting.- Returns:
- true if looking up in reverse order.
