public class IPlanetDeploymentTool
extends GenericDeploymentTool

This class is used to generate iPlanet Application Server (iAS) 6.0 stubs and skeletons and build an EJB Jar file. It is designed to be used with the Ant ejbjar task. If only stubs and skeletons need to be generated (in other words, if no JAR file needs to be created), refer to the iplanet-ejbc task and the IPlanetEjbcTask class.

The following attributes may be specified by the user:

For each EJB descriptor found in the "ejbjar" parent task, this deployment tool will locate the three classes that comprise the EJB. If these class files cannot be located in the specified srcdir directory, the task will fail. The task will also attempt to locate the EJB stubs and skeletons in this directory. If found, the timestamps on the stubs and skeletons will be checked to ensure they are up to date. Only if these files cannot be found or if they are out of date will ejbc be called.

public IPlanetDeploymentTool()
Method Detail

setIashome

public void setIashome(java.io.File iashome)
Setter method used to store the "home" directory of the user's iAS installation. The directory specified should typically be [install-location]/iplanet/ias6/ias.

Parameters:
iashome - The home directory for the user's iAS installation.

setKeepgenerated

public void setKeepgenerated(boolean keepgenerated)
Setter method used to specify whether the Java source files generated by the ejbc utility should be saved or automatically deleted.

Parameters:
keepgenerated - boolean which, if true, indicates that Java source files generated by ejbc for the stubs and skeletons should be kept.

setDebug

public void setDebug(boolean debug)
Sets whether or not debugging output will be generated when ejbc is executed.

Parameters:
debug - A boolean indicating if debugging output should be generated

setSuffix

public void setSuffix(java.lang.String jarSuffix)
Setter method used to specify the filename suffix (for example, ".jar") for the JAR files to be created.

Parameters:
jarSuffix - The string to use as the JAR filename suffix.

setGenericJarSuffix

public void setGenericJarSuffix(java.lang.String inString)
Since iAS doesn't generate a "generic" JAR as part of its processing, this attribute is ignored and a warning message is displayed to the user.

Overrides:
setGenericJarSuffix in class GenericDeploymentTool
Parameters:
inString - the string to use as the suffix. This parameter is ignored.

processDescriptor

public void processDescriptor(java.lang.String descriptorName,
                              javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser saxParser)
Process a deployment descriptor, generating the necessary vendor specific deployment files...

Specified by:
processDescriptor in interface EJBDeploymentTool
Overrides:
processDescriptor in class GenericDeploymentTool
Parameters:
descriptorName - the name of the deployment descriptor
saxParser - a SAX parser which can be used to parse the deployment descriptor.

checkConfiguration

protected void checkConfiguration(java.lang.String descriptorFileName,
                                  javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser saxParser)
                           throws BuildException
Verifies that the user selections are valid.

Overrides:
checkConfiguration in class GenericDeploymentTool
Parameters:
descriptorFileName - String representing the file name of an EJB descriptor to be processed
saxParser - SAXParser which may be used to parse the XML descriptor
Throws:

parseEjbFiles

protected java.util.Hashtable parseEjbFiles(java.lang.String descriptorFileName,
                                            javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser saxParser)
