Method Detail

getTarget

Object getTarget(ProcessTaskSpec<?> t,
                 DirectoryView baseDir,
                 RelativeLocation rel)

Create the target location for the entity being processed.

Parameters:

t - The task to get the target for. This method should not set the task's target property. (Or any other property, for that matter.) The source property is set on the task. If the task factory is a closure, this parameter will be null.

baseDir - The base target directory for the process.

rel - The processed entity's location relative to its base directory.

Returns:

The target location for the processed entity. This can for instance be a FutureEntity. The object that is returned here is set to the nested task's target property. See the task factory documentation for the nested task for the different kinds of object types that it can handle.
