Method Detail

setLink

public void setLink(java.io.File link)

The link to create.

Parameters:

link - the path of the link to create

setTargetFile

public void setTargetFile(java.io.File target)

The link target specified as file.

Parameters:

target - the path of the link taget as resolved file

setTargetText

public void setTargetText(java.lang.String target)

The link target specified as text.

Parameters:

target - the path of the link taget as string

setLinkType

public void setLinkType(Mklink.LinkType type)

The type of link to create.

If not specified explicitly and target is given as a file the link type will be guessed to be the proper type of symlink for the target type.

Parameters:

type - one of "file-symlink", "dir-symlink", "hardlink" or "junction".

setOverwrite

public void setOverwrite(boolean owrite)

Set overwrite mode. If set to false (default) the task will not overwrite existing links.

Parameters:

owrite - If true overwrite existing links.

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.
