RE: 'ant' task not overriding basedir (Ant 1.5.1)
Well, this might not be entirely accurate. I changed the 'basedir' property in the sub-project to the sub-directory in which I want it to build and it still is building from the top of the project tree. In fact, the only way I can get it to build in a sub-directory is to change to that directory and use the -f parameter.

Re: Ant task to rasterize SVG?
Hi Nicola, I snooped around the web, and found out that the Batik 1.1.1 rasterizer produces JPGs correctly under JRE 1.3, but not under JRE 1.4. So now I run Ant under JRE 1.3, and the rasterize task works just fine. AFAIK, this bug is fixed in current CVS; over at Cocoon we are using batik 1.5beta because of this. I searched Apache's bugzilla and found the fix. I applied it to Batik 1.1.1 and now it works under JRE 1.4. I've been reluctant to switch to beta versions. Are my fears unwarranted?

Re: Ant Task to compact HTML/JSP?
From: John Niven [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ant-users, long-time lurker, first-time poster... Does anyone know of/have an ant task that strips white-space, for example out of HTML/JSP files?

There's limited bandwidth over certain parts of the WAN, and I'd like to compact the generated HTML as much as possible. In particular, I'd like to retain well-formatted pages, but compact it prior to deploying the web-app. I've started writing a basic task myself, but I'd naturally like to avoid the work if possible!

Hi all,
It looks like Craig McClahahan has checked in some recent changes to the
Tomcat tree that provide ANT support for deploying webapps to running
servers. You'll need a nightly build after Feb 12th, and you'll want to
read the documentation included for the Manager App HOWTO. You'll need to
put the catalina-ant.jar in your ${ANT_HOME}/lib folder.

I searched the mail archives and couldn't find any tasks for

web

P.S. It relies on the http-client commons package available from

manager
class. I'd be interested to know how you worked around the problems I
encountered
1. the upload mechanism where you provide a url to a remote WAR file
does
not do hot updates after the first upload; from then on tomcat goes
'there
is a local copy so lets just start that'
2. the servlet responses are not easily parsable: you might think they
are
but since they are 18in-izabe resource strings they may be different on
different locales
The fixes I'd have to do: XML response from the servlet and better
reload
behavior would both be tomcat side; once they were done it would make
sense
to include the task in the tomcat codebase, rather than ant, so it will
be
in sync better.

RE: ant task dir=
Both problems can be easily solved. For problem one add ANT to your PATH on the PC: set PATH=%PATH%;c:\jakarta-ant\bin For problem two, reference the build.xml relative the current working directory: ant dir=content antfile=content/build.xml If I'm wrong, there does exist an os attribute to exec that if you specify os=Windows 2000 it will only run there. (a uname -a in the Unix world). Try to avoid this as it will mean code duplication.

They were written originally for Unix. We are executing a few subprojects within the main build.xml. This has been accomplished with: exec dir=content executable=ant/ This is called from the parent directory of content. However, this command doesn't seem to work in Windows (it can't find ant). It does work in Unix. I have tried using the following to replace this command: ant dir=content antfile=build.xml/ Now this works fine in Windows but not in Unix. The main build.xml is one level above content in the directory hierarchy. I am guessing that when using the ant task the working directory does not get switched to content but it does get switched to content when using exec. Is this the case? Is there a workaround? I could specify the OS for the exec but this is not an option for the ant task. Thanks

That's because on Windows, it's ant.bat, not ant. If you really want to
exec ant instead of doing an ant, you can specify the value for
executable as a property (eg., ${antcmd}), then set that property
according to the OS (various ways to do that).

This should work. What error do you get? What happens if you point dir
to dir=${basedir}/content? (You shouldn't have to, but if even that
doesn't work, then it could help you figure out why just giving the subdir
name doesn't either.) BTW: If the file you're ant'ing to is called
build.xml, you don't need to specify antfile -- only if it's something
other than that (just FYI).

I failed to mention that I am using CYGWIN so the same scripts, .sh.
perl etc.. used in Unix can be used in the Windows environment

The sub build does get called but when it tries to execute
additional perl scripts in a local directory it doesn't find them. I have
read about a bug with the ant dir=/

Carfield, If you are not able to contribute one yourself, the best thing to do would be to create an enhancement request in BugZilla http://nagoya.apache.org Conor -Original Message- From: Carfield Yim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 27 July 2001 3:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Ant task for gcj compilation?

A few days ago a task like this has been submitted to ant-dev, just grab it from the archive http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ant-devm=98878520826391w=2. Not sure, whether it will work with Ant 1.2.

Re: Ant task and basedir
Rich Bagley [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The only thing different is the basedir - it only works if it is the current directory. This worked OK under version 1.2. Anyone have any ideas? Yes, I guess you need to remove the cariage return characters from the antRun script in ANT_HOME/bin. This is a bug in the 1.3 distribution of Ant. Ant will use this shell script to change the working directory prior to invoking ls - but only if it needs to change the cwd at all. Stefan
Re: ant task - property overrides
--- Juno Suk [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The Ant task, called from a parent build.xml, will have all its properties overridden by the parent. The ant task does allow you to set values for properties -- you just need to do it explicitly (which admittedly, could get fairly cumbersome if you have lots of properties you need to set). Isn't this counterintuitive? Shouldn't properties set within the subproject override its parent's properties? It's been a topic of discussion for awhile. I think the main stumbling block has been what to do about command-line defines. Is there a quick way to workaround this problem? I'm trying to automate build recursion through a hierarchy, but the fact that the parent property overrides its children's frustrates me. The quickest way for now would be to pass the values explicitly in the ant task, since that's already available. Diane = ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) __ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
