Henry,
I have a question on the shell script lzdeploy:
In the shell script you set $LPS_HOME as a parameter to the java
command to the following folder:
"${LPS_HOME}/WEB-INF/lps/server/bin/lzenv"
What is the reason for that, do you remember? If I try to do the same
within my Ant build file, the lps.properties cannot be found by the
compiler. Do you have any idea why that might be? Here's the Ant
target I'm using, I'll put the full Ant build.xml into Git and post
the link here in a bit:
<!-- Compile the file to JavaScript and package the LPS resources into it -->
<target name="compile-and-package" description="Compiling to
JavaScript and packaging ZIP">
<echo message="Compiling ${file}"/>
<echo message="args: ${args} ${file}"/>
<echo message="Using LPS_HOME: ${LPS_HOME}"/>
<java classpathref="laszlo.compiler.classpath"
classname="org.openlaszlo.utils.DeployMain" fork="yes">
<jvmarg value="-Xmx1024M"/>
<jvmarg value="-DLPS_HOME=${LPS_HOME}/WEB-INF/lps/server/bin/lzenv"/>
<arg line=" ${args} ${file}"/>
</java>
</target>
