<h2><a name="mapper">Mapping File Names</a></h2>
<p>Some tasks take source files and create target files. Depending on
the task, it may be quite obvious which name a target file will have
(using <a href="../Tasks/javac.html">javac</a>, you know there will be
<code>.class</code> files for your <code>.java</code> files) - in
other cases you may want to specify the target files, either to help
Apache Ant or to get an extra bit of functionality.</p>
<p>While source files are usually specified as <a
href="fileset.html">fileset</a>s, you don't specify target files directly -
instead, you tell Ant how to find the target file(s) for one source file. An
instance of <code>org.apache.tools.ant.util.FileNameMapper</code> is
responsible for this. It constructs target file names based on rules
that can be parameterized with <code>from</code> and <code>to</code>
attributes - the exact meaning of which is implementation-dependent.</p>
<p>These instances are defined in <code>&lt;mapper&gt;</code> elements
with the following attributes:</p>
<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
<td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
<td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">type</td>
<td valign="top">specifies one of the built-in implementations.</td>
<td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="middle">Exactly one of these</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">classname</td>
<td valign="top">specifies the implementation by class name.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">classpath</td>
<td valign="top">the classpath to use when looking up
<code>classname</code>.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">classpathref</td>
<td valign="top">the classpath to use, given as <a
href="../using.html#references">reference</a> to a path defined elsewhere.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">from</td>
<td valign="top">the <code>from</code> attribute for the given
implementation.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">Depends on implementation.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">to</td>
<td valign="top">the <code>to</code> attribute for the given
implementation.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">Depends on implementation.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>Note that Ant will not automatically convert / or \ characters in
the <code>to</code> and <code>from</code> attributes to the correct
directory separator of your current platform. If you need to specify
this separator, use <code>${file.separator}</code> instead.
For the regexpmapper, <code>${file.separator}</code> will not work,
as on windows it is the '\' character, and this is an escape character
for regular expressions, one should use the <code>handledirsep</code> attribute
instead.
</p>
<h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3>
<p>The classpath can be specified via a nested
<code>&lt;classpath&gt;</code>, as well - that is,
a <a href="../using.html#path">path</a>-like structure.</p>
<p><b>Since Ant 1.7.0,</b> nested File Mappers can
be supplied via either <CODE>&lt;mapper&gt;</CODE> elements or
<a href="../Tasks/typedef.html"><code>&lt;typedef&gt;</code></a>'d
implementations of <CODE>org.apache.tools.ant.util.FileNameMapper</CODE>.
If nested File Mappers are specified by either means, the mapper will be
implicitly configured as a <a href="#composite-mapper">composite mapper</a>.
</p>
<hr>
<h3>The built-in mapper types are:</h3>
<p>All built-in mappers are case-sensitive.</p>
<p><b>As of Ant 1.7.0,</b> each of the built-in mapper implementation
types is directly accessible using a specific tagname. This makes it
possible for filename mappers to support attributes in addition to
the generally available <i>to</i> and <i>from</i>.<br>
The <code>&lt;mapper type|classname=&quot;...&quot;&gt;</code> usage
form remains valid for reasons of backward compatibility.</p>

<h4><a name="glob-mapper">glob</a></h4>
<p>Both <code>to</code> and <code>from</code> are required and define patterns that may

<!-- RegExp Mapper -->
<!-- -->
<h4><a name="regexp-mapper">regexp</a></h4>
<p>Both <code>to</code> and <code>from</code> are required and define
regular expressions. If the source file name (as a whole or in part)
matches the <code>from</code> pattern, the target file name will be
constructed from the
<code>to</code> pattern, using <code>\0</code> to <code>\9</code> as
back-references for the full match (<code>\0</code>) or the matches of
the subexpressions in parentheses. The <code>to</code> pattern
determines the <strong>whole</strong> file name, so if you wanted to
replace the extension of a file you should not use <code>from="\.old$"
to=".new"</code> but rather <code>from="(.*)\.old$" to="\1.new"</code>
(or rather use a glob mapper in this case).</p>
<p>Source files not matching the <code>from</code> pattern will be
ignored.</p>
<p>Note that you need to escape a dollar-sign (<code>$</code>) with
another dollar-sign in Ant.</p>
<p>The regexp mapper needs a supporting library and an implementation
of <code>org.apache.tools.ant.util.regexp.RegexpMatcher</code> that
hides the specifics of the library. <em>Since Ant 1.8.0</em> Ant
requires Java 1.4 to run, so the implementation based on
the <code>java.util.regex</code> package will always be available.
You can still use the now retired Jakarta ORO or Jakarta Regex instead if your
provide the corresponding jar in your CLASSPATH.</p>
<p>For information about using <a
href="http://www.cacas.org/~wes/java/" target="_top">gnu.regexp</a> or <a
href="http://www.crocodile.org/~sts/Rex/" target="_top">gnu.rex</a> with Ant, see <a
href="http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ant-dev&m=97550753813481&w=2" target="_top">this</a>
article.</p>
<p>If you want to use one of the <a href="../install.html#librarydependencies">regular expression
libraries</a> other than <code>java.util.regex</code> you need to also use
the corresponding <code>ant-[apache-oro, apache-regexp].jar</code>
from the Ant release you are using.
Make sure, both will be loaded from the same
classpath, that is either put them into your <code>CLASSPATH</code>,
<code>ANT_HOME/lib</code> directory or a nested
<code>&lt;classpath&gt;</code> element of the mapper - you cannot have
<code>ant-[apache-oro, apache-regexp].jar</code> in <code>ANT_HOME/lib</code>
and the library
in a nested <code>&lt;classpath&gt;</code>.</p>
<p>Ant will choose the regular-expression library based on the
following algorithm:</p>
<ul>
<li>If the system property
<code>ant.regexp.matcherimpl</code> has been set, it is taken as the
name of the class implementing
<code>org.apache.tools.ant.util.regexp.RegexpMatcher</code> that
should be used.</li>
<li>If it has not been set, uses the JDK 1.4 classes.</li>
</ul>

This mapper executes a script written in <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/bsf" target="_top">Apache BSF</a>
or
<a href="https://scripting.dev.java.net">JSR 223</a>
supported language, once per file to map.</p>
The script can be declared inline or in a specified file.

an explanation of scripts and dependencies.

See the <a href="../Tasks/script.html">script</a> task
on how to use this element.

self.addMappedName(source.toLowerCase());

To use this mapper, the scripts need access to the source file,
and the ability to return multiple mappings. Here are the relevant beans and
their methods. The script is called once for every source file, with the
list of mapped names reset after every invocation.
