Date: Mon, 19 Feb 2007 16:19:15 +0800 From: Xu Xin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: Ant Users List <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Hellow everyone, I am working with ANT 1.6.5, have a question for MacroDef: how can I get the configured nested tasks from <macrodef>? suppose I have the following macrodef template, <macrodef name="myjunit"> <attribute name="test"/> <sequential> <junit fork="false"> <classpath refid="test.cp"/> <sysproperty key="color" value="red"/> <test name="@{test}"/> </junit> </sequential> </macrodef> and I have a following target: <target name="test"> <myjunit test="sometest.Test1"/> </target> what I want is that I have a "detecting" code to search for the occurrence of a particular macro and get the well configured (element/attribute have been already substituted) nested task, so the above example, I need to the get the identical tasks from "test" target: <sequential> <junit fork="false"> <classpath refid="test.cp"/> <sysproperty key="color" value="red"/> <test name="sometest.Test1"/> </junit> </sequential> I looked at the MacroInstance, it seems like all element/attribute substitution're performed when we actually run it. Is it possible I can still get the nested configured tasks from MacroInstance without running it? One more question: If I can get the configured tasks from marodef, suppose I will change something against them, will the changes be persisted cross multiple macro invocation? Now, MacroInstance will likely do a copy everytime it runs. -- anfernee _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
