equivalent one (i.e. |
| public void | addDataTypeDefinition(AntTypeDefinition def)
Describe addDataTypeDefinition method here. |
| public void | addTaskDefinition(String taskName, Class taskClass)
Adds a new task definition to the project.
Attempting to override an existing definition with an
equivalent one (i.e. |
| public void | checkTaskClass(Class taskClass)
Checks whether or not a class is suitable for serving as Ant task.

exception:
BuildException - if the class is unsuitable for being an Anttask. |
| public Object | createComponent(UnknownElement ue, String ns, String componentType)

Parameters:
ue - The Unknown Element creating this component.
Parameters:
ns - Namespace URI. |
| public Object | createComponent(String componentName)
Create an object for a component.
Parameters:
componentName - the name of the component, ifthe component is in a namespace, thename is prefixed with the namespace uri and ":". |
| public Object | createDataType(String typeName)
Creates a new instance of a data type.
Parameters:
typeName - The name of the data type to create an instance of.Must not be null. |
| public Task | createTask(String taskType)
Creates a new instance of a task.
Called from Project.createTask(), which can be called by tasks.
Parameters:
taskType - The name of the task to create an instance of.Must not be null. |
| public String | diagnoseCreationFailure(String componentName, String type)
Handler called to do decent diagnosis on instantiation failure. |
| public void | enterAntLib(String uri)
Called at the start of processing an antlib. |
| public void | exitAntLib()
Called at the end of processing an antlib. |
| public Hashtable | getAntTypeTable()
Returns the current datatype definition hashtable. |
| public Class | getComponentClass(String componentName)
Return the class of the component name.
Parameters:
componentName - the name of the component, ifthe component is in a namespace, thename is prefixed with the namespace uri and ":". |
| public static ComponentHelper | getComponentHelper(Project project)
Find a project component for a specific project, creating
it if it does not exist.
Parameters:
project - the project. |
| public String | getCurrentAntlibUri()
|
| public Hashtable | getDataTypeDefinitions()
Returns the current type definition hashtable. |
| public AntTypeDefinition | getDefinition(String componentName)
Return the antTypeDefinition for a componentName.
Parameters:
componentName - the name of the component. |
| public String | getElementName(Object element)

This is useful for logging purposes.
Parameters:
element - The element to describe.Must not be null. |
| public String | getElementName(Object o, boolean brief)
