Thanks a lot Stefan! It worked pretty well, and more projects have now built.

the Xalan failure looks a bit bizarre, as I'd expect it to actually use the
org.w3c classes from xml-apis.jar.
The warning from jikes
[javac] *** Semantic Warning: I/O warning: "No such file or directory"
while
trying to open
/home/gump/workspaces2/kaffe/workspace/xml-xalan/java/${build.boot.class.path}.
seems to indicate that kaffe somehow fails to turn ${build.boot.class.path} into
something useable.
I don't know what build.boot.class.path is though, nor was google helpful in
really finding out ;)
Beside the lacking methods in class library, the major thing that kills builds
seems to be an oddity in jikes. See
http://brutus.apache.org/gump/kaffe/jakarta-commons/commons-lang/gump_work/
build_jakarta-commons_commons-lang.html
for an example:
[javac] Found 2 semantic errors compiling
"/home/gump/workspaces2/kaffe/workspace/jakarta-commons/lang/src/java/org/
apache/commons/lang/builder/StandardToStringStyle.java":
[javac] 81. public boolean isShortClassName() {
[javac] ^----------------^
[javac] *** Semantic Error: The overridden method "boolean
isShortClassName();" is deprecated in type
"org.apache.commons.lang.builder.ToStringStyle".
[javac] 102. public void setShortClassName(boolean shortClassName) {
[javac] ^---------------------------------------^
[javac] *** Semantic Error: The overridden method "void
setShortClassName(boolean shortClassName);" is deprecated in type
"org.apache.commons.lang.builder.ToStringStyle".
I guess that's a bug in jikes.
This
http://brutus.apache.org/gump/kaffe/cpptasks/ant-contrib-cpptasks/gump_work/
build_cpptasks_ant-contrib-cpptasks.html
looks like a missing Xerces on the classpath for jikes.
cheers,
dalibor topic,
off to bed for today
