Pete:
Being someone who (a) does not use the build scipts, and (b) does not need
xerces.jar because development here is on JDK 1.4, the solution proposed
below doesn't work. The termorary workaround I have added to my version of
the phoenix build is the following
// from check-environment
<available property="xerces.present" type="file" file="${xerces.jar}"/>
// from "dist-lite"
<copy todir="${bin.dist.lib}">
<fileset dir="${lib.dir}">
<include name="xerces.jar" if="xerces.present"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
The problem here is that this does not use the "{xerces.jar}" property
because the ${xerces.jar} defines a path and I can only apply the "if" test
on a filename include. The clean solution would be to seperate the xerces
directory path from the filename - ${xerces.dir}/${xerces.file}. That would
allow something like the following:
// from check-environment
<available property="xerces.present" type="file"
file="${xerces.dir}/${xerces.file}"/>
// from "dist-lite"
<copy todir="${bin.dist.lib}">
<fileset dir="${xerces.dir}">
<include name="${xerces.file}" if="xerces.available"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
So instead of documenting ${xerces.jar} in the ant.properties.sample file,
you could instead document ${xerces.dir} and ${xerces.jar} and maintain the
defintion of ${xerces.jar} in the build file.
