I am having difficulty using the apply task to 'compile' some php code. In
essence, I am building small websites for friends and to avoid duplication,
the dev site is in PHP, but the live site is html. I would like to execute
the php.exe command using the following structure in the command prompt
: php.exe A.php > A.html
The ant code to do this is shown below:
<apply executable="php.exe" dest="${dest.dir}" >
<srcfile/>
<arg value=">" />
<targetfile />
<fileset dir="${src.dir}" includes="*.php"/>
<mapper type="regexp" from="^(.*)\.php$$" to="\1.html"/>
</apply>
Unfortunately the command prompt ">" argument is not working. I ran the
task under -v and ant was recognizing the symbols properly but it was not
applying them.
My work around was to wrap the command in a separate batch file. The ant
code and batch code is shown below:
phpit.bat = php -q %1 > %2
<apply executable="phpit.bat" dest="${dest.dir}" >
<srcfile/>
<targetfile />
<fileset dir="${src.dir}" includes="*.php"/>
<mapper type="regexp" from="^(.*)\.php$$" to="\1.html"/>
</apply>
I would prefer the direct approach. Does anyone have any comments or
suggestions?
