ResolvePathTask

Extends \Task

Task for resolving relative paths and setting absolute path in property value.

This task was created to address a need for resolving absolute paths of files / directories. In many cases a relative directory (e.g. "./build") is specified, but it needs to be treated as an absolute path since other build files (e.g. in subdirs) should all be using the same path -- and not treating it as a relative path to their own directory.

Resolved [absolute] path: ${absolute_path}

TODO:

 - Possibly integrate this with PackageAsPath, for handling/resolving dot-path paths.

Methods

Returns the textual description of the task

getDescription() : string
inherited

Response

string

The text description of the task

Returns the location within the buildfile this task occurs. Used by {@link BuildException} to give detailed error messages.

getLocation() : \Location
inherited

Response

\Location

The location object describing the position of this

             task within the buildfile.

Returns the owning target of this task.

getOwningTarget() : \Target
inherited

Response

\Target

The target object that owns this task

Returns a reference to current project

getProject() : \Project
inherited

Response

\Project

Reference to current porject object

Returns a name

getRegisterSlot(string $slotName) 
inherited

Arguments

$slotName

string

Returns the wrapper object for runtime configuration

getRuntimeConfigurableWrapper() : \RuntimeConfigurable
inherited

Response

\RuntimeConfigurable

The wrapper object used by this task

Returns the name of task, used only for log messages

getTaskName() : string
inherited

Response

string

Name of this task

Returns the name of the task under which it was invoked, usually the XML tagname

getTaskType() : string
inherited

Response

string

The type of this task (XML Tag)

Called by the parser to let the task initialize properly.

init() 
inherited

Should throw a BuildException if something goes wrong with the build

This is abstract here, but may not be overloaded by subclasses.

throws

Logs a message with the given priority.

log(string $msg, integer $level = \Project::MSG_INFO) 
inherited

Arguments

$msg

string

The message to be logged.

$level

integer

The message's priority at this message should have

Called by the project to let the task do it's work. This method may be called more than once, if the task is invoked more than once. For example, if target1 and target2 both depend on target3, then running <em>phing target1 target2</em> will run all tasks in target3 twice.

main() 
inherited abstract

Should throw a BuildException if someting goes wrong with the build

This is abstract here. Must be overloaded by real tasks.

Configure this task if it hasn't been done already.

maybeConfigure() 
inherited

Perfrom this task

perform() 
inherited

Sets a textual description of the task

setDescription(string $desc) 
inherited

Arguments

$desc

string

The text describing the task

Sets a base dir to use for resolution.

setDir(\PhingFile $d) 

Arguments

Sets a file that we want to resolve.

setFile(string $f) 

Arguments

$f

string

Set level of log messages generated (default = verbose)

setLevel(string $level) : void

Arguments

$level

string

Log level

Sets the location within the buildfile this task occurs. Called by the parser to set location information.

setLocation(\Location $location) 
inherited

Arguments

$location

\Location

The location object describing the position of this

                      task within the buildfile.

Sets the owning target this task belongs to.

setOwningTarget(\Target $target) 
inherited

Arguments

$target

\Target

Sets a path (file or directory) that we want to resolve.

setPath(string $f) 

This is the same as setFile() -- just more generic name so that it's clear that you can also use it to set directory.

see \ResolvePathTask::setFile()

Arguments

$f

string

References the project to the current component.

setProject(\Project $project) 
inherited

Arguments

$project

\Project

The reference to the current project

Set the name of the property to set.

setPropertyName(string $v) : void

Arguments

$v

string

Property name

setRuntimeConfigurableWrapper(\RuntimeConfigurable $wrapper) 
inherited

Arguments

$wrapper

Arguments

$name

string

Response

string
