Hi,
What would be the best way to do the following:
1. Going into a directory (this is ok)
2. Counting the number of files of type x (getting
files is ok, *counting* is an issue)
With Ant 1.6.3 (now in beta) you could do this:
<pathconvert property="foo" pathsep=""> <path> <fileset dir="foo" includes="*.foo" /> </path> <mergemapper to="-" /> </pathconvert>
<length string="${foo}" property="foo.length" />
(look for a cooler way to do this in Ant 1.7!)
This is alread pretty decent. Thx, much appreciated.
Maybe i did not explain my requirement well enough.3. Depending on the count do something (break out of the target)
Items 2. and 3. are bugging me somewhat (esp the
counting bit in 2).
Does anybody have a suggestion as to how i can
accomplish this?
3. depends on what the comparison is... rather than
break out of a target, however, you are probably
better off to decompose your build so that the part
you want to skip by breaking out is in its own target,
which depends on a target that does this count-check. Most likely you will test its results with another
condition to set a property (or not), and whether this
property is set will determine whether the final
target is run. Under what circumstances do you NOT
want to continue, after having counted the files? What actions are you trying to avoid?
The thing is that i am looping through a series of dirs and *if* they contain 1 or more TestStubs they need to be put in a suite.
...
<foreach list="${dirs}" target="-unitTestSuite" param="dir" delimiter="${path.separator}" />
...
<target name="-unitTestSuite">
<if>
.. Check how many files are stubs .. <equals arg1="noOfFiles" arg2="0" />
<then>
<echo message="Source dir not to be included" />
.. and go back to the caller, *no processing*
</then>
<else>Do some processing</else>
</if>
</target>
The above snip is what i have in mind. Does it look sensible or am i missing some significant ant thing ;-)
tia,
