Method Detail

addDefaultExcludes

void addDefaultExcludes()
Adds default exclusions to the current exclusions set.


getBasedir

java.io.File getBasedir()
Returns the base directory to be scanned. This is the directory which is scanned recursively.

Returns:
the base directory to be scanned

getExcludedDirectories

java.lang.String[] getExcludedDirectories()
Returns the names of the directories which matched at least one of the include patterns and at least one of the exclude patterns. The names are relative to the base directory.

Returns:
the names of the directories which matched at least one of the include patterns and at least one of the exclude patterns.

getExcludedFiles

java.lang.String[] getExcludedFiles()
Returns the names of the files which matched at least one of the include patterns and at least one of the exclude patterns. The names are relative to the base directory.

Returns:
the names of the files which matched at least one of the include patterns and at least one of the exclude patterns.

getIncludedDirectories

java.lang.String[] getIncludedDirectories()
Returns the names of the directories which matched at least one of the include patterns and none of the exclude patterns. The names are relative to the base directory.

Returns:
the names of the directories which matched at least one of the include patterns and none of the exclude patterns.

getIncludedFiles

java.lang.String[] getIncludedFiles()
Returns the names of the files which matched at least one of the include patterns and none of the exclude patterns. The names are relative to the base directory.

Returns:
the names of the files which matched at least one of the include patterns and none of the exclude patterns.

getNotIncludedDirectories

java.lang.String[] getNotIncludedDirectories()
Returns the names of the directories which matched none of the include patterns. The names are relative to the base directory.

Returns:
the names of the directories which matched none of the include patterns.

getNotIncludedFiles

java.lang.String[] getNotIncludedFiles()
Returns the names of the files which matched none of the include patterns. The names are relative to the base directory.

Returns:
the names of the files which matched none of the include patterns.

scan

void scan()
          throws java.lang.IllegalStateException
Scans the base directory for files which match at least one include pattern and don't match any exclude patterns.

Throws:
java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the base directory was set incorrectly (i.e. if it is null, doesn't exist, or isn't a directory).

setBasedir

void setBasedir(java.lang.String basedir)
Sets the base directory to be scanned. This is the directory which is scanned recursively. All '/' and '\' characters should be replaced by File.separatorChar, so the separator used need not match File.separatorChar.

Parameters:
basedir - The base directory to scan. Must not be null.

setBasedir

void setBasedir(java.io.File basedir)
Sets the base directory to be scanned. This is the directory which is scanned recursively.

Parameters:
basedir - The base directory for scanning. Should not be null.

setExcludes

void setExcludes(java.lang.String[] excludes)
Sets the list of exclude patterns to use.

Parameters:
excludes - A list of exclude patterns. May be null, indicating that no files should be excluded. If a non-null list is given, all elements must be non-null.

setIncludes

void setIncludes(java.lang.String[] includes)
Sets the list of include patterns to use.

Parameters:
includes - A list of include patterns. May be null, indicating that all files should be included. If a non-null list is given, all elements must be non-null.

setCaseSensitive

void setCaseSensitive(boolean isCaseSensitive)
Sets whether or not the file system should be regarded as case sensitive.

Parameters:
isCaseSensitive - whether or not the file system should be regarded as a case sensitive one
