[Smartfrog-announce] SmartFrog.3.08.004 released and ANT component.

[Guijarro, J. <jul...@hp...>]

Hello everyone,

Last week we released SmartFrog 3.08.004, the website has been updated
and the documentation is now online:

http://www.smartfrog.org/releasedocs/index.html

Also, I have been working in a component wrapper to use any Apache ANT
task from a SmartFrog component.=20

The code is in CVS and it is still work in progress but very usable. I
have attached with this message the jar file for the component. To use
it you only need to put the sf-ant.jar and ant.jar files in the Daemon
classpath. For certain tasks you will need more ant libraries.

There is not documentation yet but I have attached an example that uses
several ANT tasks.

The component uses the same names that Ant uses for Tasks and Types. In
any case, the list is in:=20
org/smartfrog/services/ant/types.sf
org/smartfrog/services/ant/tasks.sf



Example:

#include "org/smartfrog/components.sf"
#include "org/smartfrog/services/ant/components.sf"

sfConfig extends Ant {
  echoTask extends echo {
    message "hellow world!";
  }

  copyTask extends copy {
      todir "tmp";
      filtering "true";
      myFileSet extends fileset {
        dir ".";
        includes "*.xml";
      }
      myFilterSet extends filterset {
         myFiltersFile extends {
           AntElement "filtersfile"; =09
           file "/filters.props";
         }
      }
  }
  echoMedTask extends echo {
    message "-------------- End ------------";
  }
}

See the attached file for more complex examples.

Any feedback is welcome.



Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
