Re: [platform-ant-dev] [Planty] Copies of org.apache.ant classes

[Alf.Schiefelbein@xxxxxxxx]

I needed the configureProject(...) method of the ProjectHelper with
different parameters.
In my own copy of the ProjectHelper I introduced my own method:

--- snip ---
    /**
     * That is the one method that was needed and why copying of this
package
     * from ant 1.5 had to be done. Other than usual Ant processing, here
we don't
     * work on a file but on a string.
     *
     * @param project the project
     * @param aWholeDocumentString the string that contains the whole
docoment
     * that we want to configure the project on.
     *
     * @author Alf Schiefelbein
     */
    public static void configureProject(Project project, File aFile, String
aWholeDocumentString)
        throws BuildException {
        ProjectHelperImpl helper
= (ProjectHelperImpl)ProjectHelper.getProjectHelper();
        helper.parse(project, aFile, aWholeDocumentString);
    }
--- snap ---

The other three classes are just simple copies. Dependencies on package
private methods
forced me to just copy them. There might be more elegant ways of solving
this though ...
