I have checked in some build logic which automatically sets the
compiler classpath properties. This is part of the work on DERBY-3117
and the goal, ultimately, is to have a Derby build script which works
out of the box without any customizing of ant.properties.
In order to take advantage of this automatic property setting today,
you need to remove some existing properties from your ant.properties
(j14lib, j15lib, java14compile.classpath, java15compile.classpath)
and, instead, set the following in ant.properties:
autosetProps=on
That is, right now you have to request the automatic setting of
properties. A month from now, I would like to make automatic property
setting the default. Note that even after automatic property setting
becomes the default, you will still be able to override the defaults
by setting the properties as you do today.
Over the next month, I would appreciate it if people could try out the
automatic property setting in their own environments and let me know
if something breaks. I would like this to be as solid as possible
before switching the default behavior.
I tried it out in my sandbox Rick, and it worked fine except for one
thing that probably isn't related to your changes.
The first time I do "ant all" after having done "ant clean" or "ant
clobber", the build fails when compiling
junitcomponents:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file to
/usr/local/cluwin/vo136787/derby/source/trunk/classes
[javac] Compiling 11 source files to
/usr/local/cluwin/vo136787/derby/source/trunk/classes
[javac]
/usr/local/cluwin/vo136787/derby/source/trunk/java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/harness/Sed.java:35:
package org.apache.oro.text.regex does not exist
[javac] import org.apache.oro.text.regex.*;
As far as I can understand, for some reason it cannot find the
jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar, but it is in my tools/java/ directory where it is
supposed to be. When I do "ant all" again, it works, but it fails the
same way every time I have done clean or clobber before. Any idea?
