<title>FixCRLF Task</title>

<body>
<h2 id="fixcrlf">FixCRLF</h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Adjusts a text file to local conventions.</p>
<p>The set of files to be adjusted can be refined with
the <var>includes</var>, <var>includesfile</var>, <var>excludes</var>, <var>excludesfile</var>
and <var>defaultexcludes</var> attributes. Patterns provided through the <var>includes</var>
or <var>includesfile</var> attributes specify files to be included. Patterns provided through
the <var>exclude</var> or <var>excludesfile</var> attribute specify files to be
excluded. Additionally, default exclusions can be specified with the <var>defaultexcludes</var>
attribute. See the section on <a href="../dirtasks.html#directorybasedtasks">directory-based
tasks</a>, for details of file inclusion/exclusion patterns and their usage.</p>
<p>This task forms an implicit <a href="../Types/fileset.html">FileSet</a> and supports most
attributes of <code><fileset></code> (<var>dir</var> becomes <var>srcdir</var>) as well as
the nested <code><include></code>, <code><exclude></code>
and <code><patternset></code> elements.</p>
<p>
The output file is only written if it is a new file, or if it
differs from the existing file. This prevents spurious
rebuilds based on unchanged files which have been regenerated
by this task. In order to assess whether a file has changed, this
task will create a pre-processed version of the source file inside of
the <a href="../running.html#tmpdir">temporary directory</a>.
</p>
<p><em>Since Apache Ant 1.7</em>, this task can be used in
a <a href="../Types/filterchain.html">filterchain</a>.</p>

<td>eol</td>
<td>Specifies how end-of-line (EOL) characters are to be handled. The EOL characters are CR, LF

<li><q>dos</q>: convert all EOLs to the pair CRLF</li>
</ul>
<p>This is the preferred method for specifying EOL. The <var>cr</var> attribute (see below)
is now deprecated.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: One special case is recognized. The three characters CR-CR-LF are
regarded as a single EOL. Unless this property is specified as <q>asis</q>, this sequence
will be converted into the specified EOL type.</p>

<li><q>add</q>: add a CR before any single LF characters. The intent is to convert all EOLs
to the pair CRLF.</li>

single LF.</li>

<p><strong>Note</strong>: When the attribute <var>javafiles</var> (see above) is <q>true</q>,
literal TAB characters occurring within Java string or character constants are never
modified. This functionality also requires the recognition of Java-style comments.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: There is an incompatibility between this and the previous version in
the handling of white space at the end of lines. This version
does <em><strong>not</strong></em> remove trailing whitespace on lines.</p>

<h3>Examples</h3>
<p>Replace EOLs with LF characters and remove EOF characters from the shell scripts. Tabs and spaces
are left as is.</p>
<pre>
<fixcrlf srcdir="${src}" includes="**/*.sh"
eol="lf" eof="remove"/></pre>
<p>Replace all EOLs with cr-lf pairs in the batch files. Tabs and spaces are left as is. EOF
characters are left alone if run on DOS systems, and are removed if run on Unix systems.</p>
<pre>
<fixcrlf srcdir="${src}"
includes="**/*.bat" eol="crlf"/></pre>
<p>Set EOLs according to local OS conventions, and convert sequences of spaces and tabs into the
minimal set of spaces and tabs which will preserve spacing within the line. Tabs are set at 8
character intervals. EOF characters are left alone if run on DOS systems, and are removed if run on
Unix systems. Many versions of make require tabs prior to commands.</p>
<pre>
<fixcrlf srcdir="${src}"
includes="**/Makefile" tab="add"/></pre>
<p>Convert all EOLs in the included Java source files to a single LF. Replace all tab characters
except those in string or character constants with spaces, assuming a tab width of 3. If run on a
Unix system, any CTRL-Z EOF characters at the end of the file are removed. On DOS/Windows, any such
EOF characters will be left untouched.
</p>
<pre>
<fixcrlf srcdir="${src}" includes="**/*.java"
tab="remove" tablength="3"
eol="lf" javafiles="yes"/></pre>
<p>Set EOLs according to local OS conventions, and convert all tabs to spaces, assuming a tab width
of 8. EOF characters are left alone if run on DOS systems, and are removed if run on Unix
systems. You never know what editor a user will use to browse READMEs.</p>
<pre>
<fixcrlf srcdir="${src}"
includes="**/README*" tab="remove"/></pre>
