Perform a single step in a recursive depth-first-search traversal of the target dependency tree.

The current target is first set to the "visiting" state, and pushed onto the "visiting" stack.

An exception is then thrown if any child of the current node is in the visiting state, as that implies a circular dependency. The exception contains details of the cycle, using elements of the "visiting" stack.

If any child has not already been "visited", this method is called recursively on it.

The current target is then added to the ordered list of targets. Note that this is performed after the children have been visited in order to get the correct order. The current target is set to the "visited" state.

By the time this method returns, the ordered list contains the sequence of targets up to and including the current target.

Params:
  • root – The current target to inspect. Must not be null.
  • targetTable – A mapping from names to targets (String to Target). Must not be null.
  • state – A mapping from target names to states (String to String). The states in question are "VISITING" and "VISITED". Must not be null.
  • visiting – A stack of targets which are currently being visited. Must not be null.
  • ret – The list to add target names to. This will end up containing the complete list of dependencies in dependency order. Must not be null.
Throws:
  • BuildException – if a non-existent target is specified or if a circular dependency is detected.
