Re: Instruct the tomcat source builders before the build process for tomcat source 8.5.100

2024-03-22 Thread Rainer Jung 
You need to look in the published (built) BUILDING.txt file, not the raw 
sources. The raw sources are meant to prouce a build, the yre not for 
human consumption.


You can e.g. download a published form og Tomcat 8.5.100 and look into 
BUILDING.txt there.

Yes, you are wrong.

PLEASE read the documentation first. Specifically this sentence from
BUILDING.txt


Download a version 11 or later of Java Development Kit...

Building The Apache Tomcat @VERSION_MAJOR_MINOR@ Servlet/JSP 
Container


This project contains the source code for Tomcat @VERSION_MAJOR_MINOR@, a 
container that
implements the Servlet @SERVLET_SPEC_VERSION@, JSP @JSP_SPEC_VERSION@, EL 
@EL_SPEC_VERSION@, WebSocket @WEBSOCKET_SPEC_VERSION@ and JASPIC 
@JASPIC_SPEC_VERSION@
specifications from the Java Community Process .

Note: If you just need to run Apache Tomcat, it is not necessary to build
it. You may simply download a binary distribution. It is cross-platform.
Read RUNNING.txt for the instruction on how to run it.

In order to build a binary distribution version of Apache Tomcat from a
source distribution, do the following:


(1) Download and Install a Java Development Kit

 1. If the JDK is already installed, skip to (2).

 2. Download a version @BUILD_JAVA_VERSION@ or later of Java Development Kit 
(JDK) release (use
the latest update available for your chosen version) from one of:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
http://openjdk.java.net/install/index.html
or another JDK vendor.

Note regarding later versions of Java:

  As documented elsewhere, one of components in Apache Tomcat includes
  a private copy of the Apache Commons DBCP 2 library.

  The JDBC interfaces implemented by DBCP frequently change in non-backwards
  compatible ways between versions of the Java SE specification. Therefore,
  it is likely that DBCP 2 will only compile with the specific version of 
Java
  listed above and that compilation will fail if a later version of Java is
  used.

  See Apache Commons DBCP 2 project web site for more details on
  available versions of the library and its requirements,

https://commons.apache.org/dbcp/

 3. Install the JDK according to the instructions included with the release.

 4. Set an environment variable JAVA_HOME to the pathname of the directory
into which you installed the JDK release.


(2) Install Apache Ant version @ANT_VERSION_REQUIRED@ or later on your computer.

 1. If Apache Ant version @ANT_VERSION_REQUIRED@ or later is already installed 
on your
computer, skip to (3).

 2. Download a binary distribution of Ant from:

https://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi

 3. Unpack the binary distribution into a convenient location so that the
Ant release resides in its own directory (conventionally named
"apache-ant-[version]").

For the purposes of the remainder of this document, the symbolic name
"${ant.home}" is used to refer to the full pathname of the release
directory.

 4. Create an ANT_HOME environment variable to point the directory
${ant.home}.

 5. Modify the

Hi,

While building the tomcat source 8.5.100 its giving an error with java 7

below is the error

ANT_OPTS is set to  -Djava.security.manager=allow
Error occurred during initialization of VM
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: allow : Unsupported major.minor
version 52.0

in Building.txt file it has the following instruction

  3. Install the JDK according to the instructions included with the release.

so if am not wrong, we could suggest java11 is required for the build
process in the instructions given
