Field Detail

### archiveType

    protected java.lang.String archiveType

Constructor Detail

### Cab

    public Cab()

Method Detail

### setCabfile

    public void setCabfile(java.io.File cabFile)

  The name/location of where to create the .cab file.

### setBasedir

    public void setBasedir(java.io.File baseDir)

  Base directory to look in for files to CAB.

### setCompress

    public void setCompress(boolean compress)

  If true, compress the files otherwise only store them.

### setVerbose

    public void setVerbose(boolean verbose)

  If true, display cabarc output.

### setOptions

    public void setOptions(java.lang.String options)

  Sets additional cabarc options that are not supported directly.

### addFileset

    public void addFileset(FileSet set)

  Adds a set of files to archive.

### checkConfiguration

    protected void checkConfiguration()
                               throws BuildException

  Throws:
    `BuildException`

### createExec

    protected ExecTask createExec()
                           throws BuildException

  Create a new exec delegate. The delegate task is populated so that it appears in the logs to be the same task as this one.

  Throws:
    `BuildException`

### isUpToDate

    protected boolean isUpToDate(java.util.Vector files)

  Check to see if the target is up to date with respect to input files.

  Returns:
    true if the cab file is newer than its dependents.

### createListFile

    protected java.io.File createListFile(java.util.Vector files)
                                   throws java.io.IOException

  Creates a list file. This temporary file contains a list of all files to be included in the cab, one file per line.

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`

### appendFiles

    protected void appendFiles(java.util.Vector files,
                               DirectoryScanner ds)

  Append all files found by a directory scanner to a vector.

### getFileList

    protected java.util.Vector getFileList()
                                    throws BuildException

  Get the complete list of files to be included in the cab. Filenames are gathered from filesets if any have been added, otherwise from the traditional include parameters.

  Throws:
    `BuildException`

### 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
