I'm trying to create a WAR file for my web application using the guidelines
given in Tomcat's /doc/appdev/.
I've managed to use the "build.bat" file to deploy my webapp files from the
project source dir. to the distribution dir. The problem is no .war file is
created.
This is what i get when ANT is run:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
C:\war\news>java org.apache.tools.ant.Main -Dtomcat.home=c:\jakart~1
Buildfile: build.xml
Project base dir set to: C:\war\news
Executing Target: prepare
Created dir: C:\jakart~1\webapps\news
Copying 27 files to C:\jakart~1\webapps\news
Created dir: C:\jakart~1\webapps\news\WEB-INF
Created dir: C:\jakart~1\webapps\news\WEB-INF\classes
Created dir: C:\jakart~1\webapps\news\WEB-INF\lib
Copying 1 files to C:\jakart~1\webapps\news\lib
Created dir: C:\jakart~1\webapps\news\javadoc
Executing Target: compile
Copying 1 support files to C:\jakart~1\webapps\news\WEB-INF\classes
Completed in 1 seconds
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It seems that only 2 target from the build.xml file is executed (i.e prepare
& compile) although I have defined a "dist" target (& others as well). This
is my build.xml file:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<project name="News" default="compile" basedir=".">
<!-- Simple "Hello, World" project to provide a concrete example of
the recommendations in the Application Developer's Guide.
NOTE: Before using this file as is, you should review the
values for the properties that are defined below.
In particular, it is assumed that you wish to install this
application under context path "/myapp" in the Tomcat installation
defined by your TOMCAT_HOME environment variable.
-->
<property name="app.name" value="news"/>
<property name="deploy.home"
value="${tomcat.home}/webapps/${app.name}"/>
<property name="dist.home" value="${deploy.home}"/>
<property name="dist.src" value="${app.name}.jar"/>
<property name="dist.war" value="${app.name}.war"/>
<property name="javadoc.home" value="${deploy.home}/javadoc"/>
<target name="prepare" init="init">
<mkdir dir="${deploy.home}"/>
<copydir src="web" dest="${deploy.home}"/>
<mkdir dir="${deploy.home}/WEB-INF"/>
<copyfile src="etc/web.xml" dest="${deploy.home}/WEB-INF/web.xml"/>
<mkdir dir="${deploy.home}/WEB-INF/classes"/>
<mkdir dir="${deploy.home}/WEB-INF/lib"/>
<copydir src="lib" dest="${deploy.home}/lib"/>
<mkdir dir="${javadoc.home}"/>
</target>
<target name="clean" init="init">
<deltree dir="${deploy.home}"/>
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="prepare" init="init">
<javac srcdir="src" destdir="${deploy.home}/WEB-INF/classes"
classpath="${deploy.home}/WEB-INF/classes"
debug="on" optimize="off" deprecation="off"/>
</target>
<target name="javadoc" depends="prepare" init="init">
<!-- TODO -->
</target>
<target name="all" depends="clean,prepare,compile,javadoc" init="init"/>
<target name="dist" depends="prepare,compile" init="init">
<jar jarfile="${dist.home}/${dist.src}"
basedir="." includes="*"/>
<jar jarfile="${dist.home}/${dist.war}"
basedir="${deploy.home}" includes="*"/>
</target>
</project>
