Ant 1.6 API: Can't call War.addZipfileset() from JavaScript
I have an Ant 1.5.4 build script that doesn't work in Ant 1.6 (Ant 1.6.2
or 1.6.5). It has some embedded JavaScript that is calling the Ant API to
add a ZipFileSet to the War task.
What we're trying to do is dynamically add directories to the War task at
runtime. We decided to use JavaScript to calculate which directories need
to be added, and then modify the War task via JavaScript before the War
task is run. Using the Ant API worked straightforward for us in Ant 1.5.4.
Below is an example build.xml file that shows what we are doing. I took
out the logic that dynamically builds the directories to include, in order
to keep the example simple and straightforward. (Obviously, I wouldn't use
JavaScript to add a static, known path to the War task.)
If I add the appropriate BSF and Rhino libraries to Ant 1.5.4 and Ant
1.6.2 and run this exact same build file, it works fine in Ant 1.5.4 but
throws an exception in Ant 1.6.2. The exception starts out like this:
build.xml:20: Type Error: undefined is not a function.
Pretty vague error message!
With some testing, I determined that I can't call a number of War task
methods from JavaScript in Ant 1.6.2. These include addZipfileset(),
addLib(), and addClasses(). Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or if
something changed in Ant 1.6. Any ideas? Thanks!
The build.xml file below has 2 tasks: buildWar and addWarDynamic.
Basically we use JavaScript in addWarDynamic to modify the War task in
buildWar before it's run. As I said, this works fine in Ant 1.5.4, but
throws that vague exception in Ant 1.6.2.
Example build.xml file:
<project name="SelfServiceReporting" default="buildWar" basedir=".">
<!--
================================================================= -->
<!-- make WAR file -->
<!--
================================================================= -->
<target name="buildWar" depends="addWarDynamic" >
<delete file="deleteMe.war"/>
<!-- build a .war file for the application -->
<war destfile="deleteMe.war" webxml="junk-web.xml" update=
"false">
<zipfileset dir="images" prefix="gfx/included" >
<patternset>
<include name="**/*" />
</patternset>
</zipfileset>
<classes dir="classes" />
</war>
</target>
<target name="addWarDynamic">
<script language="javascript">

Posted by Lo...@bluecrossmn.com.
Ah, Peter, that was it--thanks. I changed my Javascript code to this:
// get ahold of the "war" task in the "buildWar" target
var buildWarTasks = buildWar.getTasks();
var warTask = null;
for (var i = 0; i < buildWarTasks.length; ++i) {
var aTask = buildWarTasks[i];
if (aTask.getTaskName() == "war") {
warTask = aTask;
java.lang.System.out.println("\n\nwarTask (before conversion)
= " + warTask.toString());
if (aTask instanceof
Packages.org.apache.tools.ant.UnknownElement) {
aTask.maybeConfigure();
warTask = aTask.getTask();
java.lang.System.out.println("\n\nwarTask (after conversion) =
" + warTask.toString());
}
break;
}
}
and all is well. Thanks for pointing out the Faq article. I read the Faq
last week, but that was before I realized I had the UnknownElement
problem. A Google searched hadn't turned up much.
Thanks again.
Lou.

Re: Ant 1.6 API: Can't call War.addZipfileset() from JavaScript
I do not have time to look into this too much. However
the "unknownelement" is due to a difference in timing
of converting of xml classes to java tasks from ant 1.5 to ant 1.6.
Look at:
http://ant.apache.org/faq.html#unknownelement.taskcontainer
Your code does something similar:
for (var i = 0; i < buildWarTasks.length; ++i) {
var aTask = buildWarTasks[i];
if (aTask.getTaskName() == "war") {
warTask = aTask;
break;
So you may need to configure the task?, I am not sure if
the approach will work anymore.

Re: Ant 1.6 API: Can't call War.addZipfileset() from JavaScript
Posted by Peter Reilly <pe...@apache.org>.
I do not have time to look into this too much. However
the "unknownelement" is due to a difference in timing
of converting of xml classes to java tasks from ant 1.5 to ant 1.6.
Look at:
http://ant.apache.org/faq.html#unknownelement.taskcontainer
Your code does something similar:
for (var i = 0; i < buildWarTasks.length; ++i) {
var aTask = buildWarTasks[i];
if (aTask.getTaskName() == "war") {
warTask = aTask;
break;
So you may need to configure the task?, I am not sure if
the approach will work anymore.

Re: Ant 1.6 API: Can't call War.addZipfileset() from JavaScript
Posted by Lo...@bluecrossmn.com.
Any ideas on this? It's preventing us from upgrading to Ant 1.6, which we
need to do because of other dependencies. Am I doing something horribly
wrong? Any workarounds come to mind?
Thanks.

Re: Ant 1.6 API: Can't call War.addZipfileset() from JavaScript
Posted by Lo...@bluecrossmn.com.
More info:
It's interesting to note that the output from Ant 1.5.4 shows:
[script]
reportSet.toString=org.apache.tools.ant.types.ZipFileSet@18f1d7e
[script] warTask=org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.War@d9660d
...whereas the output from Ant 1.6.2 shows:
[script] reportSet.toString=fileRealm.properties
[script] warTask=org.apache.tools.ant.UnknownElement@8ee016
Ant 1.5.4 seems to know what type the references are, whereas Ant 1.6.2
uses "UnknownElement". Is that the problem?
When I run the build.xml from my previous message, the output from Ant
1.5.4 is:
