Hi, Stefan.

- Message from Stefan Bodewig [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Tue, 28 Jun 2005

   within which to run a test.  When the smoketest is run by the
   Gump build, my patch simply copies through the existing
   bootclasspath setting using the value of the
   sun.boot.class.path property.
 
 If you look into Ant's CVS HEAD code, you'll see that bootclasspath
 handling in CommandlineJava has become more sensible.  I.e. it will
 now create -bootclasspath arguments correctly.
 
   Does your comment about Ant ignoring all other classpath
   settings apply to the classpathref and bootclasspath
   attributes we've specified on our custom task?
 
 No, but to CommandlineJava.  When you create the command line,
 build.sysclasspath makes CommandlineJava ignore your refs.
 
   If so, that's not the behaviour we're seeing.
 
 Are you creating bootclasspath settings directly (i.e. create the args
 yourself)?

 Yes, our custom ant task creates -Xbootclasspath option using 
CommandlineJava.createJvmArg().setValue(String).  I see that there is a 
CommandlineJava.createBootclasspath(Project) method since Ant 1.6, and I 
take it that that is the method that we ought to be using.

 Thanks for all of your help in debugging this failure!

Thanks,

Henry

 In theory Gump controls all the classpath settings.
 
 Bootclasspath ought to be CVS HEAD of Xerces (which uses JAXP 1.3 by
 now), XML-APIs from xml-commons (ditto) and Xalan-J.
 
 All other stuff should end up on the normal CLASSPATH environment
 variable.
 
 Ant should be ignoring all other classpath setting you are making in
 any other place.  If this is not what you see, please yell.

 I had to put aside investigation of this problem for a time.  I now 
have a patch which I've asked another Xalan-Java committer to review. 
However, I wanted to follow up on your comment about the class path 
settings.

 This Xalan-J smoketest problem shows up in a custom task that we 
define (using taskdef) in our ant build file.  Our ant build file 
specifies both classpathref and bootclasspath attributes on references to 
this custom task using paths created within the build file, and the custom 
task builds a CommandlineJava object that it uses to create another JVM 
within which to run a test.  When the smoketest is run by the Gump build, 
my patch simply copies through the existing bootclasspath setting using 
the value of the sun.boot.class.path property.

 Does your comment about Ant ignoring all other classpath settings 
apply to the classpathref and bootclasspath attributes we've specified on 
our custom task?  If so, that's not the behaviour we're seeing.

Thanks,

Henry

Errr.  We've only received notifications of a failure for the past week or 
so.  Which is not to say that it hasn't been failing for longer than that 
- just that we never heard about it.

   We're having trouble reproducing the failure, so I was hoping
   that I could get a copy of one of the log files generated as
   part of the smoketest in order to narrow down the problem
   further.

Can I get a copy of a file created during xml-xalan2-smoketest?

2005-06-20 Thread Henry Zongaro
Hello.

 The xml-xalan2-smoketest has been failing for several days now. We're 
having trouble reproducing the failure, so I was hoping that I could get a 
copy of one of the log files generated as part of the smoketest in order 
to narrow down the problem further.  The file is 
xml-xalan/test/smoketest/api/DOMResultAPITest.xml.

 Sorry if this is wrong place to be making this request.

Thanks,

Henry
