public boolean keepgenerated

Method Detail

execute

public void execute()
Do the work. The work is actually done by creating a separate JVM to run a helper task. This approach allows the classpath of the helper task to be set. Since the weblogic tools require the class files of the project's home and remote interfaces to be available in the classpath, this also avoids having to start ant with the class path of the project it is building.

Throws: BuildException if someting goes wrong with the build

getKeepgenerated

public boolean getKeepgenerated()

setClasspath

public void setClasspath(String s)
Set the classpath to be used for this compilation.

setDescriptors

public void setDescriptors(String dirName)
Set the directory from where the serialized deployment descriptors are to be read.

Parameters: dirName the name of the directory containing the serialised deployment descriptors.

setDest

public void setDest(String dirName)
Set the directory into which the support classes, RMI stubs, etc are to be written.

Parameters: dirName the name of the directory into which code is generated

setKeepgenerated

public void setKeepgenerated(String newKeepgenerated)
If true, ejbc will keep the intermediate Java files used to build the class files. This can be useful when debugging.

setManifest

public void setManifest(String manifestFilename)
Set the name of the generated manifest file. For each EJB that is processed an entry is created in this file. This can then be used to create a jar file for dploying the beans.

Parameters: manifestFilename the name of the manifest file to be generated.

setSrc

public void setSrc(String dirName)
Set the directory containing the source code for the home interface, remote interface and public key class definitions.

Parameters: dirName the directory containg the source tree for the EJB's interface classes.
