public static class ClasspathUtils.Delegate
extends java.lang.Object
Ant ProjectComponents that need a to be able to dynamically load Classes and instantiate them often expose the following ant syntax sugar:
This class functions as a delegate handling the configuration issues for this recurring pattern. Its usage pattern, as the name suggests, is delegation rather than inheritance.
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description | 
|---|---|
| Path | createClasspath()Delegate method handling the <classpath> tag. | 
| java.lang.ClassLoader | getClassLoader()Finds or creates the classloader for this object. | 
| java.lang.String | getClassLoadId()Computes the loaderId based on the configuration of the component. | 
| Path | getClasspath()The classpath. | 
| boolean | isReverseLoader()Get the reverseLoader setting. | 
| java.lang.Object | newInstance()Helper method obtaining a fresh instance of the class specified
 in the @classname and using the specified classpath. | 
| void | setClassname(java.lang.String fcqn)Delegate method handling the @classname attribute. | 
| void | setClasspath(Path classpath)This method is a Delegate method handling the @classpath attribute. | 
| void | setClasspathref(Reference r)Delegate method handling the @classpathref attribute. | 
| void | setLoaderRef(Reference r)Sets the loaderRef. | 
| void | setReverseLoader(boolean reverseLoader)Delegate method handling the @reverseLoader attribute. | 
public void setClasspath(Path classpath)
This attribute can set a path to add to the classpath.
classpath - the path to use for the classpath.public Path createClasspath()
This nested path-like structure can set a path to add to the classpath.
public void setClassname(java.lang.String fcqn)
This attribute sets the full qualified class name of the class to load and instantiate.
fcqn - the name of the class to load.public void setClasspathref(Reference r)
This attribute can add a referenced path-like structure to the classpath.
r - the reference to the classpath.public void setReverseLoader(boolean reverseLoader)
This attribute can set a boolean indicating that the used classloader should NOT follow the classical parent-first scheme.
By default this is supposed to be false.
Caution: this behaviour is contradictory to the normal way classloaders work. Do not let your ProjectComponent use it if you are not really sure.
reverseLoader - if true reverse the order of looking up a class.public void setLoaderRef(Reference r)
r - the reference to the loader.public java.lang.ClassLoader getClassLoader()
public java.lang.String getClassLoadId()
public java.lang.Object newInstance()
public Path getClasspath()
public boolean isReverseLoader()
