[PATCH] net build ant script documentation
One must set the 'base.path' property to an *absolute* directory name for the net build script to function properly. Using a relative path will cause the script to fail. This patch seeks to add a simple warning to the user on this page.

Net build problem solved.
One must set the 'base.path' property to an absolute directory name for the net build script to function properly. Using a relative path will cause the script to fail. I'm still not sure where the site code sits in CVS. This file should be changed: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/building.html However, I took a stab at a patch, attached. (Another option is to allow relative paths probably through the tricky use of a dirset and pathconvert (that's the only way I can think of to unconditionaly make a string an absolute path in ant).) -- Josh Rehman citysearch.com 213.739.3559 Index: BUILDING.txt === RCS file: /home/cvspublic/jakarta-tomcat-5/BUILDING.txt,v retrieving revision 1.32 diff -u -r1.32 BUILDING.txt --- BUILDING.txt8 Sep 2003 10:12:00 - 1.32 +++ BUILDING.txt6 Feb 2004 05:49:43 - @@ -85,7 +85,7 @@ # - Default Base Path for Dependent Packages - # Replace this path with the directory path where dependencies binaries -# should be downloaded +# should be downloaded.

BUILD FAILED
file:/home/josh/.eclipse/tomcat-src/jakarta-servletapi-5/jsr152/build.xml:73:
Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
The only wierd thing I have going on is base.path=dependant-lib is
defined in build.properties; I don't want stuff being written into usr/java!
The full ant output is quite long, but I'd be happy to provide it if
that would help. BTW I'm trying to build so I can figure out why
server.xml is being exploded into a directory structure and how to stop
it, or at least have it clean up after itself. That net build script is
cool! (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/build.xml)
BTW do y'all use any bug tracking software? I noticed there are lots of
NEW bugs for Tomcat 4 - most of the 637 in fact. There are only 15
bugs for TC5, all NEW. FYI I wrote a new bug:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26676
