Constructor Detail

### Native2Ascii

    public Native2Ascii()

  No args constructor

Method Detail

### setReverse

    public void setReverse(boolean reverse)

  Flag the conversion to run in the reverse sense, that is Ascii to Native encoding.

  Parameters:
    `reverse` - True if the conversion is to be reversed, otherwise false;

### getReverse

    public boolean getReverse()

  The value of the reverse attribute.

  Returns:
    the reverse attribute.
  Since:
    Ant 1.6.3

### setEncoding

    public void setEncoding(java.lang.String encoding)

  Set the encoding to translate to/from. If unset, the default encoding for the JVM is used.

  Parameters:
    `encoding` - String containing the name of the Native encoding to convert from or to.

### getEncoding

    public java.lang.String getEncoding()

  The value of the encoding attribute.

  Returns:
    the encoding attribute.
  Since:
    Ant 1.6.3

### setSrc

    public void setSrc(java.io.File srcDir)

  Set the source directory in which to find files to convert.

  Parameters:
    `srcDir` - directory to find input file in.

### setDest

    public void setDest(java.io.File destDir)

  Set the destination directory to place converted files into.

  Parameters:
    `destDir` - directory to place output file into.

### setExt

    public void setExt(java.lang.String ext)

  Set the extension which converted files should have. If unset, files will not be renamed.

  Parameters:
    `ext` - File extension to use for converted files.

### setImplementation

    public void setImplementation(java.lang.String impl)

  Choose the implementation for this particular task.

  Parameters:
    `impl` - the name of the implemenation
  Since:
    Ant 1.6.3

### createMapper

    public Mapper createMapper()
                        throws BuildException

  Defines the FileNameMapper to use (nested mapper element).

  Returns:
    the mapper to use for file name translations.
  Throws:
