\DateSelector
Selector that chooses files based on their last modified date. Ant uses millisecond precision (thanks to Java); PHP is forced to use only seconds precision.
It provides support for gathering the parameters together as well as for assigning an error message and throwing a build exception if an error is detected.

Constants
Properties

boolean
$checked= 'true'
Subclasses are responsible for setting this value to false if we'd need to investigate this condition (usually because a child element has been added that is a subclass of DataType).
trueDetails- Type
- boolean
- Inherited_from
- \DataType::$checked

\Project
$project= 'null'
Holds a reference to the project that a project component (a task, a target, etc.) belongs to
A reference to the current project instanceInherited from: \ProjectComponent::$projectMethods

circularReference(
)
:
voidCreates an exception that indicates the user has generated a loop of data types referencing each other.
Inherited from: \DataType::circularReference()
dieOnCircularReference(
$stk, $p
)
:
voidCheck to see whether any DataType we hold references to is included in the Stack (which holds all DataType instances that directly or indirectly reference this instance, including this instance itself).
Inherited from: \DataType::dieOnCircularReference()If one is included, throw a BuildException created by circularReference
This implementation is appropriate only for a DataType that cannot hold other DataTypes as children.
The general contract of this method is that it shouldn't do anything if checked is true and set it to true on exit.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $stk | ||
| $p |

getCheckedRef(
$requiredClass, $dataTypeName
)
:
voidPerforms the check for circular references and returns the referenced object.
Inherited from: \DataType::getCheckedRef()| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $requiredClass | ||
| $dataTypeName |

getDescription(
)
:
voidReturn the description for the current data type.
Inherited from: \DataType::getDescription()
getParameters(
)
:
\theAllows access to the parameters gathered and set within the <custom> tag.
Inherited from: \BaseExtendSelector::getParameters()| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| \the | set of parameters defined for this selector |

isSelected(
\PhingFile $basedir, string $filename, \PhingFile $file
)
:
booleanThe heart of the matter. This is where the selector gets to decide on the inclusion of a file in a particular fileset.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $basedir | \PhingFile | the base directory the scan is being done from |
| $filename | string | is the name of the file to check |
| $file | \PhingFile | is a PhingFile object the selector can use |
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| boolean | Whether the file should be selected or not |
| Exception | Description |
|---|---|
| \BuildException | if the selector was not configured correctly |

log(
$msg, integer $level
=
Project::MSG_INFO
)
:
void
@param string $msg The message to be logged.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $msg | ||
| $level | integer | The message's priority at this message should have |

noChildrenAllowed(
)
:
voidCreates an exception that indicates that this XML element must not have child elements if the refid attribute is set.
Inherited from: \DataType::noChildrenAllowed()
parsingComplete(
)
:
voidTemplate method being called when the data type has been parsed completely.
Inherited from: \DataType::parsingComplete()
setCheckdirs(
boolean $includeDirs
)
:
voidShould we be checking dates on directories?
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $includeDirs | boolean | whether to check the timestamp on directories |

setDatetime(
string $dateTime
)
:
voidSets the date. The user must supply it in MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM AM_PM format
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $dateTime | string | a string in MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM AM_PM format |

setDescription(
$desc
)
:
voidSets a description of the current data type. It will be useful in commenting what we are doing.
Inherited from: \DataType::setDescription()| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $desc |

setError(
\msg $msg
)
:
voidAllows all selectors to indicate a setup error. Note that only the first error message is recorded.
Inherited from: \BaseSelector::setError()| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $msg | \msg | The error message any BuildException should throw. |

setGranularity(
int $granularity
)
:
voidSets the number of milliseconds leeway we will give before we consider a file not to have matched a date.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $granularity | int |

setParameters(
array $parameters
)
:
voidWhen using this as a custom selector, this method will be called.
It translates each parameter into the appropriate setXXX() call.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $parameters | array | the complete set of parameters for this selector |

setProject(
\Project $project
)
:
voidReferences the project to the current component.
Inherited from: \ProjectComponent::setProject()| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $project | \Project | The reference to the current project |

setRefid(
\Reference $r
)
:
void
Subclasses may need to check whether any other attributes have been set as well or child elements have been created and thus override this method. if they do they must call parent::setRefid()
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $r | \Reference |

setSeconds(
int $seconds
)
:
voidFor users that prefer to express time in seconds since 1970

Inherited from: \DataType::tooManyAttributes()
validate(
)
:
