AntBuilder (Groovy 3.0.7)

Package groovy.ant

## Class AntBuilder

- java.lang.Object
- - groovy.lang.GroovyObjectSupport
  - - groovy.util.BuilderSupport
    - - groovy.ant.AntBuilder

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `GroovyObject`

      public class AntBuilder
      extends BuilderSupport

  Allows Ant tasks to be used with a Groovy builder-style markup. Requires that {{ant.jar}} is on your classpath which will happen automatically if you are using the Groovy distribution but will be up to you to organize if you are embedding Groovy. If you wish to use the optional tasks you will need to add one or more additional jars from the ant distribution to your classpath - see the library dependencies for more details.

    - #### AntBuilder

          public AntBuilder​(org.apache.tools.ant.Project project)

    - #### AntBuilder

          public AntBuilder​(org.apache.tools.ant.Project project,
                            org.apache.tools.ant.Target owningTarget)

    - #### AntBuilder

          public AntBuilder​(org.apache.tools.ant.Task parentTask)

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getProject

          public org.apache.tools.ant.Project getProject()

      # Gets the Ant project in which the tasks are executed
      Returns:
        the project

    - #### getAntXmlContext

          public org.apache.tools.ant.helper.AntXMLContext getAntXmlContext()

      Gets the xml context of Ant used while creating tasks
      Returns:
        the Ant xml context

    - #### isSaveStreams

          public boolean isSaveStreams()

      Whether stdin, stdout, stderr streams are saved.
      Returns:
        true if we are saving streams
      See Also:
        `setSaveStreams(boolean)`

    - #### setSaveStreams

          public void setSaveStreams​(boolean saveStreams)

      Indicates that we save stdin, stdout, stderr and replace them while AntBuilder is executing tasks with streams that funnel the normal streams into Ant's logs.
      Parameters:
        `saveStreams` - set to false to disable this behavior

    - #### createProject

          protected static org.apache.tools.ant.Project createProject()

      Returns:
        Factory method to create new Project instances

    - #### setParent

          protected void setParent​(Object parent,
                                   Object child)

      Specified by:
        `setParent` in class `BuilderSupport`

    - #### doInvokeMethod

          protected Object doInvokeMethod​(String methodName,
                                          Object name,
                                          Object args)

      We don't want to return the node as created in `createNode(Object, Map, Object)` but the one made ready by `nodeCompleted(Object, Object)`
      Overrides:
        `doInvokeMethod` in class `BuilderSupport`
      See Also:
        `BuilderSupport.doInvokeMethod(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object)`

    - #### nodeCompleted

          protected void nodeCompleted​(Object parent,
                                       Object node)

      Determines, when the ANT Task that is represented by the "node" should perform. Node must be an ANT Task or no "perform" is called. If node is an ANT Task, it performs right after complete construction. If node is nested in a TaskContainer, calling "perform" is delegated to that TaskContainer.
      Overrides:
        `nodeCompleted` in class `BuilderSupport`
      Parameters:
        `parent` - note: null when node is root
        `node` - the node that now has all its children applied
