AW: how to tell ant to run the task at the end of build

[Knuplesch, Jürgen <Ju...@icongmbh.de>]

Hallo,

I wrote my own AntLogger to run a task in the end. This was necessary to rename log files that were otherwise locked by the Ant job:

In the logger I call in the buildfinished (this method is part of the usual logger) method a method that starts the final target:

  public void buildFinished(BuildEvent event) {
    final String msgFinish = super.buildFinished2(event);

    final Project project = event.getProject();
    final Hashtable properties = project.getProperties();

    iconfinally(project, event);
....

In the iconfinally method I call Ant from java:

  final private String FINAL_TARGET = "icon.finally"; // name of the target that will be started in the end of the build

  private void iconfinally(Project project, BuildEvent event) {
    Hashtable properties = project.getProperties();

    // test if the Build failed
    final Throwable error = event.getException();
    if (error != null) {
      project.setProperty(this.FINAL_TARGET + ".buildfailed", "true");
    } else {
      project.setProperty(this.FINAL_TARGET + ".buildfailed", "false");
    }

    project.executeTarget(this.FINAL_TARGET); // execute the final target in Buildfile
....


And now I only have to add this target into my buildfile 
  <target name="icon.finally" description="does final works e.g. saving the logfile">
    <echo level="info" message="finally message" />
  </target>

and add the Logger when I call Ant. (and add the Logger jar to my Ant installation)

call ant -f build.xml -logger de.icongmbh.ant.listener.YourLogger
....
I love this solution (-:
