Another wrong error message when publishing
-------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-1081
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1081
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.1.0-RC1
Reporter: hem006
<target name="publish">
...
<copy file="${jar.dir}/${artifact.name}.jar" todir="." />
<ivy:publish artifactspattern="${jar.dir}/${artifact.name}"
resolver="shared" pubrevision="${ivy.new.revision}" />
...
</target>
leads to the following output
...\build.xml:26: impossible to publish artifacts for
mycompany.com#MyComponent;work...@my-pc: java.lang.IllegalStateException: bad
ivy file for mycompany.com#MyComponent;work...@my-pc: [...]/MyComponent:
java.text.ParseException: [[Fatal Error] :1:1: Content is not allowed in
prolog. in file:[...]/MyComponent/
]
Note that it is the ivy:publish task that fails, whereas the ant copy works as
intended. Now, the error message sends you hunting in the ivy file - maybe
there is some malformed xml...? However, the problem turns out to be related to
the ${jar.dir} variable reference in the 'artifactspattern' parameter. The same
variable caused no trouble in the line before, so what is wrong?
Remove the variable reference, and everything works fine.
This is the second bug I've experienced - and reported - in a couple of days,
relating to Ivy providing wrong feedback in case of an error. Maybe it is time
for a review of the code, related to error handling?
