Environment: Any system that already has an Ant installation with config files
in the standard locations (/etc/ant.conf, $HOME/.ant/ant.conf, $HOME/.antrc).
Description:
Forrest comes with a self-contained Ant distribution. In order for it to work
properly, it is important to avoid picking up Ant config files that belong to
other potentially existing Ant installations on the system. On Red Hat Linux,
e.g., the RPM package for ant 1.5.2 installs /etc/ant.conf. When running
Forrest 0.6 out of the box (e.g., "forrest -projecthelp"), the
tools/ant/bin/ant script included with Forrest sources /etc/ant.conf and picks
up an incorrect value for ANT_HOME (/usr/share/ant in this case). This results
in a
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/apache/tools/ant/launch/Launcher
exception when trying to run forrest because there is no
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-launcher.jar. Even if there was, we wouldn't want to
pick up those jars anyway, we want the ones that came with Forrest.
The fix is to change line 95 (as of v0.6) in src/core/bin/forrest from
"$ANT_HOME/bin/ant" -buildfile "$ANTFILE" -Dbasedir="$PROJECT_HOME"
-Dforrest.home="$FORREST_DOT_HOME" -emacs $@
to
"$ANT_HOME/bin/ant" --noconfig -buildfile "$ANTFILE" -Dbasedir="$PROJECT_HOME"
-Dforrest.home="$FORREST_DOT_HOME" -emacs $@
This tells ant to ignore default config files, which is what we want in this
case since the ant used by forrest is completely self-contained.
As of 3-18-05, this bug is still present in the HEAD revision of the forrest
startup script (since v0.7-dev known as bin/forrest).
