I am attempting to build struts 1.2.9 and having issues. It seems to build
the main struts.jar fine, but fails later in the process when building
mailreader.
I guess I have two questions.
First, is there any value in building the struts-examples? Do they provide
any functionality to the framework?
Second, if I do want to build the examples, why is the environment not
keeping the struts.home property?
The struts.home property in the struts-1.2.9/src/struts-examples/mailreader
folder is not being set correctly (or being overwritten).
>From the build.xml file, the struts home is set on line 36 as follows, where
the basedir is specified as "."
34> <!-- Dependency home directory defaults -->
35> <property name="server.home" value="C:/Program Files/Apache
Group/Tomcat 5.5"/>
36> <property name="struts.home" value="${basedir}/../../dist"/>
Later when the build process runs, the value of struts.home is echoed to the
command line.
The value that is displayed is "/../../"
I have tried manually overwriting the struts.home variable bu changing line
36 in the build.xml file to read
<property name="struts.home" value="C:/Program Files/Apache
Group/Struts-1.2.9/src/dist"/>
But when the build executes, I still see the value of struts.home displayed
as "/../../".
Has anyone run across this before, or does anyone have an idea why this
might be occurring?
(Of course, if I don't need the examples, ignore question 2.)
Thanks,
Darren
