Adding a third question : in order to find out where commons-compress.jar should be put in the project, I have just tried to build the antlib from the command line. It looks like the expected way of building is to put commons-compress.jar on the classpath before starting ant ? My guess is we want to add an explicit classpath to the <javac target ? And also set the attribute includeantruntime="false" to also explicitly put the required ant jars on the classpath, as ant 1.8.0 seems to nag us to do.

Regards,

Antoine

Hello Stefan,

I have just done a svn checkout of the compress antlib.

I have 2 first questions :

- do we really want to run javac with the source and target options set to 1.2 ? I see that commons-compress itself requires at least 1.4.

- what is the easiest way for lazy people [me for instance] to open the compress antlib in eclipse with the dependent jars at a proper place so that you can see all imports resolved ?

Regards,

Antoine

Hi all,

I've tagged the current trunk of the compress antlib and plan to build a
release from it and propose a vote.

The Antlib will require Ant 1.8.x and Commons Compress.  Commons
Compress 1.0 is known to have some issues (in particular for the ar and
cpio classes) but I wouldn't want to wait for a new release of it since
there are enough open JIRA issues for it that the next release may be
months away.

Unless anybody stops me I intend to go ahead with the release process
over the next few days.

Stefan
