At the prompting of Steve Loughran, I'm trying to get up to speed on

This is great!


Glad to help however I can.

But you certainly shouldn't be the only one dealing with it.  We have
a MacOS X box at the ASF that committers can get access to (and I'll
just now ask for an account on it ;-).


You should make them give you an Xserve.


However, just a plain checkout from cvs had the negative results
posted at the end of this email.

I.e. the 1.5 branch works, but 1.6alpha doesn't?


Ah... perhaps. I suppose I should look more carefully at what I'm checking out. ;-) How are the versions set up? Is there a handy readme somewhere I should be looking at? I'm reading through http://jakarta.apache.org/site/guidelines.html and looking around the ant site for more detailed guidelines and stuff, but any must-read stuff you'd like to point out would be most helpful. I'll poke around with my exciting command line cvs client and see what tags and stuff I can find.


What are the priorities for testing?

I've committed a fix to the 1.5 branch about ten days ago that makes
test21 pass on JDK 1.1 and 1.2.  Maybe this has fixed the test for
Apple's 1.3 VM as well.


Well, I ran ./build.sh test on the 1.5b1 stuff that comes in jakarta-ant-1.5Beta1-src.tar.gz, but there really didn't seem to be much junit action going on. Below is the whole run. (I also did a build clean test, which resulted in more compiling, but no more apparent testing. (At least no more output.) I haven't really investigated much further, other than to confirm that there are in fact a bunch of test cases in src/testcases/org/apache/tools/ant/


A separate Java process did get spawned. (I get a fun little bouncing Java icon in the dock when that happens.) Maybe it's just not being verbose about what happened.

Here's the output:
