yWorks Ant Explorer Released

yWorks Ant Explorer Released

yWorks is proud to announce the availability of yWorks Ant Explorer, a powerful tool to visualize and explore your Ant build scripts.

Ant Explorer Benefits

Ant build scripts can become hard to understand once they reach a certain "critical mass." Myriads of targets with Gordian dependencies or complex relationships of properties can easily spoil any attempts of maintenance for a developer.

The yWorks Ant Explorer provides the means to tackle such situations by visualizing your Ant build scripts. It automatically

  • presents a build script's targets and their dependencies as well as the used properties in a clear and concise manner

  • evaluates and displays the contents of your properties


But best of all, it can do all the above live when it amazingly animates your Ant build script's execution in real-time!

yWorks Ant Explorer is free of charge and comes with strong integration for popular IDEs. It is available as a plugin for Eclipse, IntelliJ Idea(TM), and NetBeans. A stand-alone version is also available. Please visit the yWorks Ant Explorer home page for more information (http://www.yworks.com/en/products_antexplorer_about.htm).

The integration for IntelliJ Idea can be installed using the Plugin Manager.

Hmm... IJ 5.0.1 RC thinks I have the Newest version even though I have
1.0 beta -b13.

Is this IJ fault or yWorks?

It seems that usage of the task is not being interpreted correctly. For example, here is a piece of our ANT script: yWorks Ant Explorer states that property javamail.ready is not defined, when in reality it is defined as a part of ]]>.

Hi,

Thanks for your report.
At the moment not all "property-creating" tasks are parsed correctly. We
will add support for this soon.

For example, here is a piece of our ANT script:
<available property="javamail.ready" type="file"
file="${dist.jetty.ext}/javamail.jar"/>
<target name="dist.javamail" unless="javamail.ready">
<copy todir="${dist.jetty.ext}">
<fileset dir="${javamail.lib}" includes="*.jar"/>
</copy>
</target>

yWorks Ant Explorer states that property javamail.ready is not defined,
when in reality it is defined as a part of <available>.

Are you sure, you have the latest version installed? The stacktrace
looks like it is the old version.

Especially the class "AntEditor2" does not exist anymore...


Could you please check your plugin directory? Maybe there exist two
installed versions?

Johannes,

FYI, the sequence "righ-click, go to source" on an Ant target produces the following:

Hi Johannes,

I checked, and it turned out the version I had installed was in fact
an old one (1.0 beta b-13). The strange thing though was that the
Plugin manager labeled that version as "Newest" and saw no need to
upgrade it. After a "manual upgrade", my build file now works fine...

Thanks for the hint,
Jens

Thanks for posting...

I'll upload a bugfix soon...

In IDEA, you can set Build file Properties in the Ant Build panel. These are currently not
recognized by Ant Visualizer.

For example; in the Build File Properties dialog, I have app.server set to weblogic81 but in
the graph it is shown in red with the text "not defined".

Thanks for pointing on this.

I will include support for it in the next release...

At the moment I can't find a way to read those configured properties.
I'm waiting for a response from JetBrains...
