<subsection name="Read the Manual">
- <p>The first step to take when you have a problem is to read the <a
href="manual/index.html">
- manual</a> entry for the task or concept that is giving you
trouble. Check particularly the meaning of
- attributes and nested elements. Perhaps an attribute would
provide the behavior you require. If you
- have problems with the manual, then you can submit a
documentation bug report (see below) to help us
- improve the Ant documentation.

<subsection name="Examine Debug Output">
- <p>The first step when you have a problem is to see what Ant is
doing. Try running Ant with
- The verbose flag<br/><br/>
- <code>ant -verbose</code><br/><br/>
- or<br/><br/>
- <code>ant -v</code><br/><br/>
+ <p>
+ If you're still having a problem, the next step is to try and
+ gather additional information about what Ant is doing.
+ Try running Ant with the <code>verbose</code> flag:
+ <br></br><br></br>
+ <font face="verdana" size="-1">ant -verbose</font>
+ <br></br><br></br>
+ or
+ <br></br><br></br>
+ <font face="verdana" size="-1">ant -v</font>
+ <br></br><br></br>
- This will produce something which starts like the following:</p>

- You may be able to see in this trace what ant is doing and why
it takes a particular
- course of action. If you need even more information you can use
the <code>-debug</code>
- flag rather than <code>-verbose</code>. This will generally
produce so much output that
- you may want to save the output and analyze it in an editor.

- <p>So, once you have all this debug information, how can you use
it to solve your problem?
- That will depend on the task in question and the nature of
your problem. Each task logs
- different aspects of its operation, but it will give you an
idea of what is going on. For
- example, the <javac> task logs the reasons why it
chooses to compile particular
- classes and the equivalent command it is using. The following
trace (which has been edited
- and reformatted for clarity) shows javac adding one class but
skipping another. This is followed
- by the compiler arguments and a summary of all the classes to
be compiled.

- In many cases Ant tasks are wrappers around OS commands or
other java classes. In debug mode, many
- of these tasks will print out the equivalent command line, as
the <javac> task above does. If
- you are having a problem, it is often useful to run the
command directly in the same way Ant is doing
- and see if the problem persists. The problem may lie in the
command being run by Ant, or in the way
- the Ant task is running the command. You can also see the
effect of changing attribute values on the
- generated command line. This can help you to understand
whether you are using the correct attributes
- and values.

- After examining the debug output, you still believe that the
problem you are having may be caused by Ant.
- Chances are that someone else may have already encountered this
problem and perhaps it has been
- fixed. The next step, therefore, may be to try a nightly build of
Ant to see if the
- problem has been fixed. Nightly builds for Ant are available from
the
- <a
href="http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/jakarta-ant/nightly/";>Jakarta web
site</a>. While Ant nightly
- builds are typically quite stable and are used by <a
href="http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/gump/latest/";>
- Gump</a> to build many other Jakarta projects, these builds should
be treated as experimental. You can
- install and verify whether your problem has been fixed. Note that
nightly builds do not build many of the
- optional tasks the come with Ant. A snapshot of these optional
tasks is occasionally uploaded to the nightly
- download <a
href="http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/jakarta-ant/nightly/optional/";>area</a>.
Note that even
- this snapshot does not contain every optional task.

- <subsection name="Filing a Bug report">
- <p>By this time you may have decided that there is a bug in Ant. You
have a few choices at this
- point. You can send an email to the ant-user mailing list to see
if others have encountered your issue
- and how they may have worked around it. If after some discussion,
you still feel you have a bug, it
- is time to create a bug report. This is a simple operation in the
Bug Database. Please try to provide
- as much information as possible to assist the developers in
resolving the bug. Please try to enter correct
- values for the various inputs when creating the bug. Once the bug
is created you can add attachments to
- the bug report.
- </p>
-
- <p>What information should you include in your bug report? The
easiest bugs to fix are those which are most
- easily reproducible, so if you can, it is really helpful to
produce a small test case that exhibits the
- problem. In this case, you would attach the build file and other
files necessary to reproduce the problem
- probably packed together in an archive. If you can't produce a
test case, you should try to include a
- snippet from your build file and the relevant sections from the
debug out from Ant. Try to include the
- header information where Ant states the version, the OS and VM
information etc. As the debug output is
- likely to be very large, you should try to remove the output
which is not relevant. Once the bug is
- entered into the Bug Database, you will be kept informed about
progress on the bug. If you receive email
- asking for further information, please try to respond as it will
aid in the resolution of your bug.

- <subsection name="Asking for an enhancement">
- <p>Sometimes, you may find that Ant just doesn't do what you want.
It isn't a bug, as such, since Ant
- is working the way it is supposed to. Perhaps it is something
that hasn't been thought of yet, or
- a completely new task. For these situations you will want to
raise an enhancement request.
- Enhancement requests are managed using the same Apache Bug
Database described above.
- These are just a different type of report. If you look in the
database, you will see that one of
- the severity settings for a bug is "Enhancement". So,
just fill the bug report in, and
- in the description, state how you would like to have Ant
enhanced. Again you should check whether
- there are any existing enhancment requests that cover your
needs. If so, just add your vote to these.

<subsection name="Fixing the Bug">
- <p>If you aren't satisfied just filing a bug report, you can try to
find and fix the problem yourself. The
- best way to do that is by working against the latest code from
CVS. Alternatively, you can work with the
- source code from the source distributions available on the
Jakarta website. If you are going to tackle the
- issues at this level, you may want to discuss details on the
ant-dev mailing list. Once you have a fix
- for the problem, you may either submit the patch to the ant-dev
mailing list or enter into the Bug
- Database as described above, attaching the patch. Using the Bug
database has the advantage of tracking
- the progress of your bug.
