Description: declaration: package: org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.j2ee, class: WebLogicHotDeploymentTool

Package org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.j2ee

# Class WebLogicHotDeploymentTool

java.lang.Object
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.j2ee.AbstractHotDeploymentTool
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.j2ee.WebLogicHotDeploymentTool

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `HotDeploymentTool`

public class WebLogicHotDeploymentTool extends AbstractHotDeploymentTool implements HotDeploymentTool
An Ant wrapper task for the weblogic.deploy tool. This is used to hot-deploy J2EE applications to a running WebLogic server. This is not the same as creating the application archive. This task assumes the archive (EAR, JAR, or WAR) file has been assembled and is supplied as the "source" attribute.

In the end, this task assembles the commandline parameters and runs the weblogic.deploy tool in a separate JVM.

    public WebLogicHotDeploymentTool()

- ## Method Details

  - ### deploy

    public void deploy()
    Perform the actual deployment. For this implementation, a JVM is spawned and the weblogic.deploy tools is executed.
    Specified by:
      `deploy` in interface `HotDeploymentTool`
    Throws:
      `BuildException` - if the attributes are invalid or incomplete.

  - ### validateAttributes

    public void validateAttributes() throws BuildException
    Validates the passed in attributes.

    The rules are:

    1. If action is "deploy" or "update" the "application" and "source" attributes must be supplied.
    2. If action is "delete" or "undeploy" the "application" attribute must be supplied.
    Specified by:
      `validateAttributes` in interface `HotDeploymentTool`
    Overrides:
      `validateAttributes` in class `AbstractHotDeploymentTool`
    Throws:
      `BuildException` - if the attributes are invalid or incomplete

  - ### getArguments

    public String getArguments() throws BuildException
    Builds the arguments to pass to weblogic.deploy according to the supplied action.
    Returns:
      A String containing the arguments for the weblogic.deploy tool.
    Throws:
      `BuildException` - if there is an error.

  - ### isActionValid

    protected boolean isActionValid()
    Determines if the action supplied is valid.

    Valid actions are contained in the static array VALID_ACTIONS

    Specified by:
      `isActionValid` in class `AbstractHotDeploymentTool`
    Returns:
      true if the action attribute is valid, false if not.

  - ### buildArgsPrefix

    protected StringBuffer buildArgsPrefix()
    Builds the prefix arguments to pass to weblogic.deploy. These arguments are generic across all actions.
    Returns:
      A StringBuffer containing the prefix arguments. The action-specific build methods will append to this StringBuffer.

  - ### buildDeployArgs

    protected String buildDeployArgs()
    Builds the arguments to pass to weblogic.deploy for deployment actions ("deploy" and "update").
    Returns:
      A String containing the full argument string for weblogic.deploy.

  - ### buildUndeployArgs

    protected String buildUndeployArgs()
    Builds the arguments to pass to weblogic.deploy for undeployment actions ("undeploy" and "delete").
    Returns:
      A String containing the full argument string for weblogic.deploy.

  - ### buildListArgs

    protected String buildListArgs()
    Builds the arguments to pass to weblogic.deploy for the list action
    Returns:
      A String containing the full argument string for weblogic.deploy.

  - ### setDebug

    public void setDebug(boolean debug)
    If set to true, additional information will be printed during the deployment process; optional.
    Parameters:
      `debug` - A boolean representing weblogic.deploy "-debug" flag.

  - ### setApplication

    public void setApplication(String application)
    The name of the application being deployed; required.
    Parameters:
      `application` - A String representing the application portion of the weblogic.deploy command line.

  - ### setComponent

    public void setComponent(String component)
    the component string for the deployment targets; optional. It is in the form `<component>:<target1>,<target2>...` Where component is the archive name (minus the .jar, .ear, .war extension). Targets are the servers where the components will be deployed
    Parameters:
      `component` - A String representing the value of the "-component" argument of the weblogic.deploy command line argument.
