    Parameters:
      `prefix` - the prefix to use.

  - ### appendBuiltin

    public void appendBuiltin(PropertySet.BuiltinPropertySetName b)
    Allow builtin (all, system or commandline) properties in the set.
    Parameters:
      `b` - the type of builtin properties.

  - ### setMapper

    public void setMapper(String type, String from, String to)
    Set a mapper to change property names.
    Parameters:
      `type` - mapper type.
      `from` - source pattern.
      `to` - output pattern.

  - ### addPropertyref

    public void addPropertyref(PropertySet.PropertyRef ref)
    Add a property reference (nested element) to the references to be used.
    Parameters:
      `ref` - a property reference.

  - ### addPropertyset

    public void addPropertyset(PropertySet ref)
    Add another property set to this set.
    Parameters:
      `ref` - another property set.

  - ### createMapper

    public Mapper createMapper()
    Create a mapper to map the property names.
    Returns:
      a mapper to be configured.

  - ### add

    public void add(FileNameMapper fileNameMapper)
    Add a nested FileNameMapper.
    Parameters:
      `fileNameMapper` - the mapper to add.
    Since:
      Ant 1.6.3

  - ### setDynamic

    public void setDynamic(boolean dynamic)
    Set whether to reevaluate the set every time the set is used. Default is true.
    Parameters:
      `dynamic` - if true, reevaluate the property set each time the set is used. if false cache the property set the first time and use the cached set on subsequent occasions.

  - ### setNegate

    public void setNegate(boolean negate)
    Set whether to negate results. If "true", all properties not selected by nested elements will be returned. Default is "false".
    Parameters:
      `negate` - if true, negate the selection criteria.

  - ### getDynamic

    public boolean getDynamic()
    Get the dynamic attribute.
    Returns:
      true if the property set is to be evaluated each time it is used.

  - ### getMapper

    public Mapper getMapper()
    Get the mapper attribute.
    Returns:
      the mapper attribute.

  - ### getProperties

    public Properties getProperties()
    This is the operation to get the existing or recalculated properties.
    Returns:
      the properties for this propertyset.

  - ### getRef

    protected PropertySet getRef()
    Performs the check for circular references and returns the referenced PropertySet.
    Returns:

  - ### setRefid

    public final void setRefid(Reference r)
    Sets the value of the refid attribute.
    Overrides:
      `setRefid` in class `DataType`
    Parameters:
      `r` - the reference this datatype should point to.
    Throws:
      `BuildException` - if another attribute was set, since refid and all other attributes are mutually exclusive.

  - ### assertNotReference

    protected final void assertNotReference()
    Ensures this data type is not a reference.

    Calling this method as the first line of every bean method of this data type (setXyz, addXyz, createXyz) ensure proper handling of the refid attribute.

    Throws:
      `BuildException` - if the refid attribute was already set, since refid and all other attributes are mutually exclusive.

  - ### toString

    public String toString()
    A debug toString. This gets a comma separated list of key=value pairs for the properties in the set. The output order is sorted according to the keys' natural order.
    Overrides:
      `toString` in class `DataType`
    Returns:
      a string rep of this object.

  - ### iterator

    public Iterator<Resource> iterator()
    Fulfill the ResourceCollection interface.
    Specified by:
      `iterator` in interface `Iterable<Resource>`
    Returns:
      an Iterator of Resources.
    Since:
      Ant 1.7

  - ### size

    public int size()
    Fulfill the ResourceCollection contract.

      `size` in interface `ResourceCollection`
    Returns:
      the size of this ResourceCollection.

  - ### isFilesystemOnly

    public boolean isFilesystemOnly()
    Fulfill the ResourceCollection contract.
    Specified by:
      `isFilesystemOnly` in interface `ResourceCollection`
    Returns:
      whether this is a filesystem-only resource collection.

  - ### dieOnCircularReference

    protected void dieOnCircularReference(Stack<Object> stk, Project p) throws BuildException
    Description copied from class: `DataType`
    Check 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).

    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 `DataType.checked` is true and set it to true on exit.

    Overrides:
      `dieOnCircularReference` in class `DataType`
    Parameters:
      `stk` - the stack of references to check.
      `p` - the project to use to dereference the references.
    Throws:
      `BuildException` - on error.
