Class: DataType

DataType::circularReference()
Creates an exception that indicates the user has generated a loop of data types referencing each other.
DataType::dieOnCircularReference()
Check to see whether any DataType we hold references to is included in the Stack (which holds all DataType instances that directly or indirectly reference this instance, including this instance itself).
DataType::getCheckedRef()
Performs the check for circular references and returns the referenced object.
DataType::getDescription()
Return the description for the current data type.
DataType::isReference()
Has the refid attribute of this element been set?
DataType::noChildrenAllowed()
Creates an exception that indicates that this XML element must not have child elements if the refid attribute is set.
DataType::parsingComplete()
Template method being called when the data type has been parsed completely.
DataType::setDescription()
Sets a description of the current data type. It will be useful in commenting what we are doing.
DataType::setRefid()
Set the value of the refid attribute.
DataType::tooManyAttributes()
Creates an exception that indicates that refid has to be the only attribute if it is set.

Class: ProjectComponent

ProjectComponent::getProject()
Returns a reference to current project
ProjectComponent::log()
Logs a message with the given priority.
ProjectComponent::setProject()
References the project to the current component.

Class Details

[line 66]
This object represents a path as used by include_path or PATH environment variable.

This class has been adopted from the Java Ant equivalent. The ability have path structures in Phing is important; however, because of how PHP classes interact the ability to specify CLASSPATHs makes less sense than Java.Rather than providing CLASSPATH for any tasks that take classes as parameters, perhaps a better solution in PHP is to have an IncludePath task, which prepends paths to PHP's include_path INI variable. This gets around the problem that simply using a path to load the initial PHP class is not enough (in most cases the loaded class may assume that it is on the global PHP include_path, and will try to load dependent classes accordingly). The other option is to provide a way for this class to add paths to the include path, if desired -- or to create an IncludePath subclass. Once added, though, when would a path be removed from the include path?

<p> The object implemention
  1. sometask
must provide a method called
  1. createSomepath
which returns an instance of
. Nested path definitions are handled by the Path object and must be labeled
  1. pathelement
.<p> The path element takes a parameter
  1. path
which will be parsed and split into single elements. It will usually be used to define a path from an environment variable.
