Hi Nico,
I replied to Daniel's message regarding this a bit earlier. From what
he wrote and the test he suggested, it looks like the problem stems
from Eclipse.
I just retrieve the original build files from CVS, and ant (my
version in OS X is 1.6.2) works with the original CVS build-i18n.xml
file. It is just Eclipse that doesn't seem to know my path. Since you
are the Eclipse guru, maybe you know where I may have a setting wrong
there...
Could you try running Ant from Eclipse with the flag -debug or -v
(remove the -Dgettext_path)
and send me the output of build-i18n.xml ?
Yesterday, I had a look at the source code for the <exec> task in Ant.
It's quite a mess and highly dependent on the OS.
It appears that it's not always directly running xgettext, but maybe
trying to run it through ${ant.home}/bin/antRun.
With the log output, it will tell us which method Ant is trying to use.
When you're running Jmol, you should get a line concerning os.name in
the output.
What result do you get ?
I have: os.name:Windows 2000
Depending on this value, Ant will use different methods in the <exec> task
The -Dgettext_path=/usr/local/bin/ method you suggest with the
modification in the build-i18n.xml file does indeed work.
So I could upload this modification to the xml file, but on the other
hand, I feel like Eclipse should be able to do the right thing from
the get go (without having to change things that do work for other
people).
I assume that your install of eclipse id not giving you these
problems, so it may be just me...
I agree, this modification is only a last solution if we can't find a
better one.
(On the other hand, this modification can also be useful for systems
having gettext tools but not in the path).
I don't think it's your install, it's probably more a problem with
Eclipse under OS X, I hope we can tell with the logs.
Nicolas
