Can someone please look at the following and explain the behavior I am
seeing?
<project name = "MyProject">
<taskdef resource = "net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml"/>
<script language="javascript">
<![CDATA[
echo = MyProject.createTask ( "echo" );
variable = MyProject.createTask ( "var" );
variable.setName ( "theVal" );
variable.setValue ( "foo" );
variable.execute ();
echo.setMessage ( "Javascript = " + MyProject.getProperty (
"theVal" ) );
echo.perform ();
echoval.execute ();
variable.setName ( "theVal" );
variable.setValue ( "bar" );
variable.execute ();
echo.setMessage ( "Javascript = " + MyProject.getProperty (
"theVal" ) );
echo.perform ();
echoval.execute ();
]]>
</script>
<echo message = "After Javascript = ${theVal}"/>
<target name="echoval">
<echo>echoval = ${theVal}</echo>
</target>
</project>
Buildfile: build.xml
[echo] Javascript = foo
[echo] echoval = foo
[echo] Javascript = bar
[echo] echoval = foo
[echo] After Javascript = bar
Basically, when I set some value in the script, I see the correct value
from within the script...and as well as once the script ends...
However, in the script when I call out to a target, the value is
unchanged. I'm not sure if this is a scoping issue or if I am calling
out incorrectly?
I looked over the online docs for <script> and it says I have access to
all items of the project from the script (which clearly I do). However,
the curious part is that I do set the value theVal in the script and can
see the value changing...but when I call out to the target, echoval,
theVal maintains the same value as its initial value.
I tried different variations of the above - using project instead of
MyProject, etc. I found the results to be the same.
Many thanks ahead of time!
