I've noticed that in repeated builds some directory where left on
working folder,
even after executing 'clobber' target.
The solution, tested on current trunk, seems to add a line to 'clobber'
target
and adding a note to BUILDING.html.
The work log is :
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1) checking out trunk
svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/derby/code/trunk .
2) looking deeply (even if now it's empty anyway)
--
C:\Altea\Progetti\Apache\derby\trunk>svn st --no-ignore
C:\Altea\Progetti\Apache\derby\trunk>
--
3) ant buildsource (or ant all - with the same results)
svn st --no-ignore
--
I classes
I classes.pptesting
I generated
I release
I tools\java\junit.jar
--
4) ant clobber
svn st --no-ignore
--
I classes.pptesting
I tools\java\junit.jar
--
so it seems that 'clobber' target should clean also
classes.pptesting
folder (junit.jar, IMHO, should stay there)
5) restarting from (1) and doing
ant all
ant buildjars
ant clobber
svn st --no-ignore
--
I classes.pptesting
I jars
I tools\java\junit.jar
--
so it seems that clobber should delete also
jars
*BUT *target 'cleanjars' already cleans current ${sanity.name} subfolder
so, when doing a full build, the sequence should be
ant cleanjars
ant clobber
ant buildjars
[ant javadoc]
6) for 'classes.pptesting' folder the related property seems :
out.pptesting.dir
--
out.base=${basedir}
out.pptesting.dir=${out.base}/classes.pptesting
--
7) so, in order to delete it in 'clobber', one should change it to
--
<target
name="clobber"
depends="clean,cleangenerated,cleanstate,cleanreleasefiles"
description="Remove all build artifacts."
>
<delete file="${out.base}/changenumber.properties"/>
<delete file="${basedir}/jacoco.exec"/>
/*<delete dir="${out.pptesting.dir}"/> <!-- added -->*/
</target>
--
8) Maybe one should also add a note to
BUILDING.html
stating that for a rebuild the sequence should starts
ant cleanjars clobber
e.g. :
--
So, for the *first *build, do this:
ant -quiet clobber
ant -quiet buildsource
ant -quiet buildjars
And for all *subsequent *builds, do this:
ant -quiet *cleanjars *clobber
ant -quiet buildsource
ant -quiet buildjars
--
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you agree to these updates ?
