Re: Basic question about ant
Since wsgen is in a jar file, I put the complete path of the jar file in
the exec.
So if anttasks.jar was in C:/eclipse/plugins/anttasks.jar then my exec looks
like this:
<exec executable="C:/eclipse/plugins/wsgen">

RE: Basic question about ant
Posted by Martin Gainty <mg...@hotmail.com>.
you'll want try to locate the main class of the jar
cd SomeFolder
jar -xvf wsgen.jar
cd SomeFolder
javap *.class | grep main
//when you see a 'main' method in one of the classes
//then assign the main class to classname attribute of taskdef as described here
<taskdef name="global"
classname="package.ClassWithMain">
<classpath refid="testclasses" />
</taskdef>
//now you can call the task from a target
<target name="testGlobal">
<global>
<echo message="it worked!" />
</global>
</target>

*Today wsgen works.*

Since wsgen is in a jar file, I put the complete path of the jar file in
the exec.
So if anttasks.jar was in C:/eclipse/plugins/anttasks.jar then my exec looks
like this:
<exec executable="C:/eclipse/plugins/wsgen">
*/
since your wsgen task comes with a jar, don't use the exec task,
but i should be as easy as =
use taskdef with path =
<taskdef resource="com.whatever.wsgen.TheClassYouNeedToCall">
<classpath path="C:/wsgen/wsgentask.jar" />
</taskdef>
or if it's a tasksuite where wsgen is part of =
use taskdef with path =
<taskdef resource="com/whatever/antlib.xml">
<classpath path="C:/wsgen/wstasks.jar" />
</taskdef>
add the wsgentask.jar to the (eclipse) antruntime via
Window | Preferences | Ant | Runtime | Global Entries |
and either
Add Jars if you have a project in your workspace
that contains your wsgentask.jar (personally i prefer to
have a simple project named DevJars in my workspace
which has all the jars i need, which is also under cvs control)
or
Add External Jars to use a wsgentask.jar that lives
in filesytem outside eclkipse workspace
you will also have code assist for your tasks in ant editor then
when put to ant runtime you don't need the nested classpath =
<taskdef resource="com.whatever.wsgen.TheClassYouNeedToCall"/>
or
<taskdef resource="com/whatever/antlib.xml"/>
