Looks like we crossed emails a bit, but I'll respond to your initial
reply. I had all this right, I think. I think the issue was that I was
assuming that build would use the properties file specified in the
project.releng build.xml but it appears to bring build.properties as
well in some places. So I was changing all of this stuff and of course
it wasn't having any effect. :( Renaming to build.properties looks to
have solved this issue.
* a) you have plugins with MANIFEST.MFs which don't declare BREEs
I've checked these over pretty carefully but will look again. I don't
think this is issue w/ Enum tho..
*b) your J2SE-* variables are missing jars which you need included on
the bootclasspath. If you open a bug and attach a patch (it's easy to
test it locally) [2] I can include *more jars in the default
bootclasspath entry so everyone benefits.
*c) you're using a 32-bit OS with a 64-bit Eclipse, or some similar
mismatch. If you're running a 64-bit Eclipse, you need a 64-bit JVM
[3]. AFAIK your only option for Java on* *Mac is to install it from
the apple.com site (or perhaps from MacPorts). I don't think Sun
provides Mac downloads.
Right.. If I mod JavaSE-1.6, J2SE-1.5, etc.. in my build-
custom.properties file then that should fix it locally, correct? Or do
I need to modify something else? When I use the settings that I sent
in other msg, no joy.
My setup is all 64. And you're right, its just installed through
update manager. But as Mac OS doesn't provide libraries in standard
way; i.e. lre/lib/rt.jar, I've modified the JavaSE-1.6 entries, etc..
Instead I'm using the jars that are specified
One thing I noted is that the compiler being used is actually Eclipse
Java Compiler 0.A06, 3.6.0 M1, Copyright IBM Corp 2000, 2009. All
rights reserved. Is that 64-bit? If not should I be specifying the
Apple javac somehow?
Note too that your tests will not run on MacOSX or Windows in a
headlessly-integrated-as-part-of-the-build way [4]. They should run in
Eclipse using the AntRunner, but that's a different mechanism.
