[Java] Class Groovyc
- org.codehaus.groovy.ant.Groovyc
public class Groovyc extends MatchingTask
Compiles Groovy source files using Ant.
Typically involves using Ant from the command-line and an Ant build file such as:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <project name="MyGroovyBuild" default="compile"> <property name="groovy.home" location="/Path/To/Groovy"/> <property name="groovy.version" value="X.Y.Z"/> <taskdef name="groovyc" classname="org.codehaus.groovy.ant.Groovyc"> <classpath> <fileset file="${groovy.home}/lib/groovy-${groovy.version}.jar"/> <fileset file="${groovy.home}/lib/groovy-ant-${groovy.version}.jar"/> </classpath> </taskdef> <target name="compile" description="compile groovy sources"> <groovyc srcdir="src" destdir="bin" fork="true" listfiles="true" includeantruntime="false"> <classpath> <fileset dir="${groovy.home}/lib" includes="groovy-*${groovy.version}.jar" excludes="groovy-ant-${groovy.version}.jar"/> </classpath> </groovyc> </target> </project>
This task can take the following arguments:
- srcdir
- destdir
- sourcepath
- sourcepathRef
- classpath
- classpathRef
- scriptExtension
- targetBytecode
- listfiles
- failonerror
- proceed
- memoryInitialSize
- memoryMaximumSize
- encoding
- verbose
- includeantruntime
- includejavaruntime
- fork
- javaHome
- executable
- updatedProperty
- errorProperty
- includeDestClasses
- jointCompilationOptions
- stacktrace
- indy
- scriptBaseClass
- stubdir
- keepStubs
- forceLookupUnnamedFiles
- configscript
- parameters
- javac
When this task executes, it will recursively scan srcdir and destdir looking for Groovy source files to compile. This task makes its compile decision based on timestamp.
A more elaborate build file showing joint compilation:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <project name="MyJointBuild" default="compile"> <property name="groovy.home" location="/Path/To/Groovy"/> <property name="groovy.version" value="X.Y.Z"/> <path id="classpath.main"> <fileset dir="${groovy.home}/lib"> <include name="groovy-*${groovy.version}.jar"/> <exclude name="groovy-ant-${groovy.version}.jar"/> </fileset> </path> <taskdef name="groovyc" classname="org.codehaus.groovy.ant.Groovyc"> <classpath> <fileset file="${groovy.home}/lib/groovy-${groovy.version}.jar"/> <fileset file="${groovy.home}/lib/groovy-ant-${groovy.version}.jar"/> </classpath> </taskdef> <target name="clean"> <delete dir="bin" failonerror="false"/> </target> <target name="compile" depends="clean" description="compile java and groovy sources"> <mkdir dir="bin"/> <groovyc srcdir="src" destdir="bin" stubdir="stubs" keepStubs="true" fork="true" includeantruntime="false" classpathref="classpath.main"> <javac debug="true" source="1.8" target="1.8"/> </groovyc> </target> </project>
Based on the implementation of the Javac task in Apache Ant.
Can also be used from AntBuilder to allow the build file to be scripted in Groovy.

public void setForceLookupUnnamedFiles(boolean forceLookupUnnamedFiles)
Set the forceLookupUnnamedFiles flag. Defaults to false.
The Groovyc Ant task is frequently used in the context of a build system that knows the complete list of source files to be compiled. In such a context, it is wasteful for the Groovy compiler to go searching the classpath when looking for source files and hence by default the Groovyc Ant task calls the compiler in a special mode with such searching turned off. If you wish the compiler to search for source files then you need to set this flag to true
.
- Parameters:
-
forceLookupUnnamedFiles
- should unnamed source files be searched for on the classpath
public void setFork(boolean f)

public void setIncludeantruntime(boolean include)
If true, includes Ant's own classpath in the classpath. Default is true. If setting to false and using groovyc in conjunction with AntBuilder you might need to explicitly add the Groovy jar(s) to the groovyc classpath using a nested classpath task.
- Parameters:
-
include
- if true, includes Ant's own classpath in the classpath
public void setIncludejavaruntime(boolean include)
