public class Sync

extends Task

Synchronize a local target directory from the files defined in one or more filesets.

Uses a <copy> task internally, but forbidding the use of mappers and filter chains. Files of the destination directory not present in any of the source fileset are removed.

Since:

Ant 1.6 revised by Dan Armbrust to remove orphaned directories.

Method Detail

init

public void init()
          throws BuildException

Description copied from class: Task

Called by the project to let the task initialize properly. The default implementation is a no-op.

Overrides:

init in class Task

Throws:

BuildException - if something goes wrong with the build

execute

public void execute()
             throws BuildException

Description copied from class: Task

Called by the project to let the task do its 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 "ant target1 target2" will run all tasks in target3 twice.

Overrides:

execute in class Task

Throws:

BuildException - if something goes wrong with the build

setTodir

public void setTodir(java.io.File destDir)

Sets the destination directory.

setVerbose

public void setVerbose(boolean verbose)

Used to force listing of all names of copied files.

setOverwrite

public void setOverwrite(boolean overwrite)

Overwrite any existing destination file(s).

setIncludeEmptyDirs

public void setIncludeEmptyDirs(boolean includeEmpty)

Used to copy empty directories.

setFailOnError

public void setFailOnError(boolean failonerror)

If false, note errors to the output but keep going.

Parameters:

failonerror - true or false

addFileset

public void addFileset(FileSet set)

Adds a set of files to copy.

setGranularity

public void setGranularity(long granularity)

The number of milliseconds leeway to give before deciding a target is out of date.

Default is 0 milliseconds, or 2 seconds on DOS systems.

Since:

Ant 1.6.2
