<h2 id="jarlib-resolve">jarlib-resolve</h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Try to locate a jar to satisfy an extension and place location of jar into property. The task
allows you to add a number of resolvers that are capable of locating a library for a specific
extension. Each resolver will be attempted in specified order until library is found or no resolvers
are left.  If no resolvers are left and <var>failOnError</var> is true then
a <code>BuildException</code> will be thrown.</p>

<p>Note that this task works with extensions as defined by the "Optional Package" specification.
For more information about optional packages, see the document <em>Optional Package Versioning</em>
in the documentation bundle for your Java Standard Edition package, in
file <code>guide/extensions/versioning.html</code> or the
online <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/extensions/versioning.html"
target="_top">Extension and ExtensionSet documentation</a> for further details.</p>

<h3>Parameters</h3>
<table class="attr">
  <tr>
    <th scope="col">Attribute</th>
    <th scope="col">Description</th>
    <th scope="col">Required</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>property</td>
    <td>The name of property to set to library location.</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>failOnError</td>
    <td><q>true</q> if failure to locate library should result in build exception.</td>
    <td>No; defaults to <q>true</q></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>checkExtension</td>
    <td><q>true</q> if libraries returned by nested resolvers should be checked to see if they
      supply extension.</td>
    <td>No; defaults to <q>true</q></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3>

<h4>extension</h4>
<p><a href="../Types/extension.html">Extension</a> the extension to resolve. Must be present</p>

<h4>location</h4>
<p>The <code>location</code> nested element allows you to look for a library in a location relative
to project directory.</p>
<table class="attr">
  <tr>
    <th scope="col">Attribute</th>
    <th scope="col">Description</th>
    <th scope="col">Required</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>location</td>
    <td>The pathname of library.</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<h4>url</h4>
<p>The <code>url</code> resolver allows you to download a library from a URL to a local file.</p>
<table class="attr">
  <tr>
    <th scope="col">Attribute</th>
    <th scope="col">Description</th>
    <th scope="col">Required</th>

  <tr>
    <td>url</td>
    <td>The URL to download.</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>destfile</td>
    <td>The file to download URL into.</td>
    <td rowspan="2">Exactly one of the two</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>destdir</td>
    <td class="left">The directory in which to place downloaded file.</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<h4>ant</h4>
<p>The <code>ant</code> resolver allows you to run an Apache Ant build file to generate a
library.</p>
<table class="attr">
  <tr>
    <th scope="col">Attribute</th>
    <th scope="col">Description</th>
    <th scope="col">Required</th>

  <tr>
    <td>antfile</td>
    <td>The build file.</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>destfile</td>
    <td>The file that the ant build creates.</td>
    <td>Yes</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>target</td>
    <td>The target to run in build file.</td>
    <td>No</td>
  </tr>

<h3>Examples</h3>
<p>Resolve Extension to file. If file does not exist or file does not implement extension then throw
an exception.</p>
<pre>
&lt;extension id=&quot;dve.ext&quot;
           extensionName=&quot;org.realityforge.dve&quot;
           specificationVersion=&quot;1.2&quot;
           specificationVendor=&quot;Peter Donald&quot;/&gt;

&lt;jarlib-resolve property="dve.library"&gt;
  &lt;extension refid="dve.ext"/&gt;
  &lt;location location="/opt/jars/dve.jar"/&gt;
&lt;/jarlib-resolve&gt;</pre>

<p>Resolve Extension to URL. If URL does not exist or can not write to <var>destfile</var> or file
does not implement extension then throw an exception.</p>
<pre>
&lt;extension id=&quot;dve.ext&quot;
           extensionName=&quot;org.realityforge.dve&quot;
           specificationVersion=&quot;1.2&quot;
           specificationVendor=&quot;Peter Donald&quot;/&gt;

&lt;jarlib-resolve property="dve.library"&gt;
  &lt;extension refid="dve.ext"/&gt;
  &lt;url url="http://www.realityforge.net/jars/dve.jar" destfile="lib/dve.jar"/&gt;
&lt;/jarlib-resolve&gt;</pre>

<p>Resolve Extension to file produce by Ant build. If file does not get produced or Ant file is
missing or build fails then throw an exception. (<strong>Note</strong>: does not check that library
implements extension.)</p>
<pre>
&lt;extension id=&quot;dve.ext&quot;
           extensionName=&quot;org.realityforge.dve&quot;
           specificationVersion=&quot;1.2&quot;
           specificationVendor=&quot;Peter Donald&quot;/&gt;

&lt;jarlib-resolve property="dve.library" checkExtension="false"&gt;
  &lt;extension refid="dve.ext"/&gt;
  &lt;ant antfile="../dve/build.xml" target="main" destfile="lib/dve.jar"/&gt;
&lt;/jarlib-resolve&gt;</pre>

<p>Resolve Extension via multiple methods. First check local file to see if it implements
extension. If it does not then try to build it from source in parallel directory. If that fails then
finally try to download it from a website. If all steps fail then throw a build exception.</p>
<pre>
&lt;extension id=&quot;dve.ext&quot;
           extensionName=&quot;org.realityforge.dve&quot;
           specificationVersion=&quot;1.2&quot;
           specificationVendor=&quot;Peter Donald&quot;/&gt;

&lt;jarlib-resolve property="dve.library"&gt;
  &lt;extension refid="dve.ext"/&gt;
  &lt;location location="/opt/jars/dve.jar"/&gt;
  &lt;ant antfile="../dve/build.xml" target="main" destfile="lib/dve.jar"/&gt;
  &lt;url url="http://www.realityforge.net/jars/dve.jar" destfile="lib/dve.jar"/&gt;
&lt;/jarlib-resolve&gt;</pre>
