Method Detail

execute

public static void execute(Object proxy,
                           String method)
                    throws Exception

Call execute() - any ant-like task should work

Throws:

Exception

setAttribute

public static void setAttribute(Object proxy,
                                String n,
                                Object v)
                         throws Exception

Call void setAttribute( String ,Object )

Throws:

Exception

getAttribute

public static Object getAttribute(Object proxy,
                                  String n)
                           throws Exception

Call void getAttribute( String )

Throws:

Exception

getURLClassLoader

public static ClassLoader getURLClassLoader(URL[] urls,
                                            ClassLoader parent)

Construct a URLClassLoader. Will compile and work in JDK1.1 too.

guessInstall

public static String guessInstall(String installSysProp,
                                  String homeSysProp,
                                  String jarName)

guessInstall

public static String guessInstall(String installSysProp,
                                  String homeSysProp,
                                  String jarName,
                                  String classFile)

Guess a product install/home by analyzing the class path. It works for product using the pattern: lib/executable.jar or if executable.jar is included in classpath by a shell script. ( java -jar also works ) Insures both "install" and "home" System properties are set. If either or both System properties are unset, "install" and "home" will be set to the same value. This value will be the other System property that is set, or the guessed value if neither is set.

displayClassPath

public static void displayClassPath(String msg,
                                    URL[] cp)

Debug method, display the classpath

classPathAdd

public static String classPathAdd(URL[] urls,
                                  String cp)

Adds classpath entries from a vector of URL's to the "tc_path_add" System property. This System property lists the classpath entries common to web applications. This System property is currently used by Jasper when its JSP servlet compiles the Java file for a JSP.

setProperty

public static boolean setProperty(Object o,

Find a method with the right name If found, call the method ( if param is int or boolean we'll convert value to the right type before) - that means you can have setDebug(1).

setProperty

public static boolean setProperty(Object o,
                                  String name,
                                  String value,
                                  boolean invokeSetProperty)
