Summary: Problems with BaseDir when the ant is started as Java
library from Java Application
Product: Ant
Version: 1.7.1
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: blocker
Priority: P2
Component: Core
AssignedTo: notifications@ant.apache.org
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I try to start ant script using ant as java library from Java application. The
start is realized as follow:
File buildXmlFile = new File("C:\a\b\z.xml");
List<String> command = new ArrayList<String>();
...
command.add(...);
...
command.add("-buildfile");
command.add(buildXmlFile.getAbsolutePath());
Main ant = new Main();
ant.startAnt(command.toArray(new String[command.size()]), null, null);
The content of build xml file is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="SSHAntScriptTest" default="default" basedir=".">
<description>Build file for SSH Ant Script tests.</description>
<scp file="test.txt" todir="${username}:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/bc"/>
</project>
The xml build file location is different from the execution directory.
When that execution is initiated from the command prompt like that everything
is OK:
c:\somedir>ant -buildfile c:\anotherdir>buildfile.xml
When I try to start the same with the same parameters as java library the
text.txt file can not be founded. Ant looks for the file in execution directory
"c:\somedir\test.txt" instead in buildfile directory "c:\anotherdir\test.txt".
To fix this at the moment the following changes are made:
1. The user.dir is changed:
File dir = buildXmlFile.getParentFile();
System.getProperties().put("user.dir", dir.getAbsolutePath());
2. The method runBuild from the Main class is fixed as follow:
private void runBuild(ClassLoader coreLoader) throws BuildException {
...
project.init();
// 2008-Sep-04: Bug Fix from Miro.
project.getBaseDir();
I try to put that fix before project.init() without result.
If you need I can send you one small project as test case.
The big problem is that I do some changes in System Properties and that the
application is multi-thread and multi-tasking and because System Properties are
global (static) for all instances in the current JVM.
