I have recently started using Ant for developing some code in
conjuction with Emacs. I am impressed with Ant's features and believe
that will provide a big help to individuals/companies doing cross
platform developent.
I just subscribed to the development mailing list and I am not sure if
this topic has been brought up or not. With the new 1.1 release of Ant
the logging or output from the <javac> Task has changed from printing
something like the following:
ant compile
Buildfile: build.xml
Project base dir set to: /home/wida3m/test
Executing Target: compile
Compiling TEST using classpath: .:~/TEST:/pk...
ls.jar:/fmac/users/wida3m/xml4j/xml4j.jar...
Warning: file modified in the future: D.java
Compiling 2 source files to /home/wida3m/test
->/home/wida3m/test/Xfer.java:5: '{' expected.
public class Xf er {
to something like:
ant compile
Buildfile: build.xml
Project base dir set to: /home/wida3m/test
Executing Target: compile
Compiling TEST using classpath: .:~/TEST:/pk...
ls.jar:/fmac/users/wida3m/xml4j/xml4j.jar...
Warning: file modified in the future: D.java
Compiling 2 source files to /home/wida3m/test
->[Javac] /home/wida3m/test/Xfer.java:5: '{' expected.
public class Xf er {
The name of the Task which is running is now printed out along with the
errors from the compiler. The "[Javac]" prefix which has been added to
the output seems to disrupt Emacs' ability to jump to the corresponding
error line number within the appropriate file. I made a small work
around in DefaultLogger.java to not print the Task name for the Javac
command but I was not sure if this was a known side effect of the new
Logging output.
I am curious to here any feedback anyone might have.
Thanks,
Anthony.
BTW - I believe the code is around line 136 of DefaultLogger.java:
// Filter out messages based on priority
if (event.getPriority() <= msgOutputLevel) {
// Print out the name of the task if we're in one
if (event.getTask() != null) {
String name = event.getTask().getTaskName();
String msg = "[" + name + "] ";
for (int i = 0; i < (LEFT_COLUMN_SIZE - msg.length()); i++) {
out.print(" ");
}
out.print(msg);
}
// Print the message
out.println(event.getMessage());
}
