Dear François, 2015-07-30 12:28 GMT+02:00 "François Charette" <albuma...@users.sf.net>:

During the last three days, we did a mayor rewrite of the build system and began to restructure the code. Therefore, you were middle in the process. The next days should be less noisy and things should get more stable. Nevertheless, we still apply IntelliJs code refactorings to modernize the code base. > Now I am trying to compile it on Mac OS X but I ran into two difficulties: Good to know that there is a Mac OS X developer. We did our best, but could not really test our Mac OS X builds, maybe you can support us? :) > 1) The steps "./gradlew generateSource" and "./gradlew eclipse" went fine. > But in the next step when I ran "./gradlew assemble" I get an error during > the phase compileJava due to missing antlr package: This also happens when switching branches dev_2.11 and master back and forth. `gradlew clean` does not remove `src/main/gen`. This must be done manually when switching branches. I assume that you started at a frech checkout. I would suggest to pull the master branch again and retry to get the thing up and running. > I assume that Gradle should normally manage that antlr compile dependency > correctly. Yes, it does. > Any idea what causes this and how I can circumvent it? I think, the issue resolves itself if you pull and remove `src/main/gen`. > 2) I had another problem when trying to run JabRef from Eclipse (via > JabRefMain) but it fails with this exception: > Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: AboutEvent > This is strange because this class is natively provided by JDK8 on Mac via > com.apple.eawt.AppEvent (in rt.jar) ... This is interesting. In the master branch, we included MacAdapter.java in the direct source. This was made possible by including a JAR providing these classes on Linux/Windows. Maybe this resolves the issue, too or prevents JabRef from running at all. Maybe you can test? > BTW the reason I am doing this is to investigate a bug in the latest 2.11 > beta version that was reported by a research team I am associated with, and > I thought I could perhaps fix it and offer you a patch. That would be great. Then, I would recommend you to stop working on the master branch and switch to the `dev_2.11`. We will try to port the fixes to the main branch! > I first wanted to check whether it can still be reproduced with the latest > development > version. The bad thing would be if it happens on the dev_2.11 branch, but does not happen on the master branch. Let's see :) Hope, that helps and please keep me updated :) Cheers, Oliver ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Jabref-devel mailing list Jabref-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jabref-devel
