public class TaskAdapter
extends Task
implements TypeAdapter

Uses introspection to "adapt" an arbitrary Bean which doesn't itself extend Task, but still contains an execute method and optionally a setProject method.

Method Detail

### checkTaskClass

    public static void checkTaskClass(java.lang.Class taskClass,
                                      Project project)

  Checks whether or not a class is suitable to be adapted by TaskAdapter. This only checks conditions which are additionally required for tasks adapted by TaskAdapter. Thus, this method should be called by Project.checkTaskClass. Throws a BuildException and logs as Project.MSG_ERR for conditions that will cause the task execution to fail. Logs other suspicious conditions with Project.MSG_WARN.

  Parameters:
    `taskClass` - Class to test for suitability. Must not be `null`.
    `project` - Project to log warnings/errors to. Must not be `null`.
  See Also:
    `Project.checkTaskClass(Class)`

### checkProxyClass

    public void checkProxyClass(java.lang.Class proxyClass)

  check if the proxy class is a valid class to use with this adapter. the class must have a public no-arg "execute()" method.

  Specified by:
    `checkProxyClass` in interface `TypeAdapter`
  Parameters:
    `proxyClass` - the class to check

### execute

    public void execute()
                 throws BuildException

  Executes the proxied task.

  Overrides:
    `execute` in class `Task`
  Throws:
    `BuildException` - if the project could not be set or the method could not be executed.

### setProxy

    public void setProxy(java.lang.Object o)

  Sets the target object to proxy for.

  Specified by:
    `setProxy` in interface `TypeAdapter`
  Parameters:
    `o` - The target object. Must not be `null`.

### getProxy

    public java.lang.Object getProxy()

  Returns the target object being proxied.

  Specified by:
    `getProxy` in interface `TypeAdapter`
  Returns:
    the target proxy object
