Looking for example xml to generate a Findbugs report using ANT to analyse multiple jars?

Question

How do I setup an Ant task to generate a Findbugs report when the source folder has many jars in it?

I'm looking for a worked example of the ant task required to output the fancy HTML from a folder containing multiple jars

Answer 1

FindBugs ant target to generate the report in XML format, then apply one of the XSLT transformations that come with your FindBugs installation via the standard Ant XSLT target.

Answer 2

This thread is 2 years old but maybe someone will find it useful:

You can do it easily:

<class location="${src.dir}/test.jar" /> 
<class location="${src.dir2}/test2.jar" />

Assuming you have 2 source path you should define them before:

<sourcePath path="first source path" />
<sourcePath path="second source path" />
