RE: Jar Task Manifest Attribute

Hi Ken, Did you try both the manifest attribute and the manifest element? Can you give us a copy of your code, or a simplified version that "manifests" the same behavior? For one thing, that would let us see what exactly you tried in the code when you interpreted the ambiguous phrase "added thro

RE: Build directly on machine vs. SSH to machine and start build

Hi Eric, In *nix shells, your shell will load one or more of several different startup files. Which one is loaded by bash depends on what type of a process you are running the script as. One file is run only when you are logging in (bash runs ".bash_profile", or, if it is not present, ".profile"

RE: How do I trace where a target was called from in a complicated build?

Hi David, I tried "ant -p -debug" on my own project. It generated 840 lines of output, but did not show the dependencies of targets. Maybe Stefan was thinking of a different parameter? So I tried doing it the hard way. I ran this grep command on all the ant xml files (30): grep -e "depends=" -e

RE: Why is the java command not executing

Hi Venu, default target is archive archive depends on compile, so compile is run. compile depends on init, so init is run. That's all that is happening, so of course the execute doesn't happen.. Make archive depends="compile, execute". Then it will do - init - compile - execute - archive Rob

RE: ant exec task message priority

Hudson must be matching some specific string to identify ERROR, INFO, etc. Any change to that string would cause Hudson's match to fail. Any chance there is a change in C compiler co-incidentally here? Maybe some whitespace is being compressed as it passes through Ant? I would pipe the output of A

Hi Adam, I'm not familiar with any such change in Ant. Which doesn't mean there is none. :-) Is there a change in the build.xml file? Or can you run with the two versions of ant on the same file and get the differences you mention? Have you looked at the 1.7 and 1.8.2 Ant docs for the ant exec

Hi Darky, XSLT is a good tool for generating XML files. Try the free (GPL) version of Saxon, from saxonica. http://sourceforge.net/projects/saxon/files/ But for help on how to write XSLT, you will have to go to a different list. Saxon has lists, (and I should subscribe to one.) Rob > -Origina

You are running separate copies of ant for each of the junit tests. Instead, run them all in the same Ant invocation, and make the "mainbuild" target depend on all of them. The above line replaces the first 4 nonblank lines (shown below) from your example. > > > > Rob > -O

Hi Brian, Try this code. Note: you can't put the default value of JOF into a file that will be loaded automatically when ant is run, such as (home)/.antrc, as that would set JOF before your code executes. First set works, last set fails. On the other hand, you could set "JOF_default" in a proper

Hi Eric, (code below) Try the "depends with if/unless" pattern. Note the "if" and "unless" parameters on the do.true and do.false targets. "condition" sets a variable depending on something - in this case where a file exists or not. The "top" level target does nothing except make sure other thin
