http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28034 The javacc target is practically useless as implemented Summary: The javacc target is practically useless as implemented Product: Ant Version: 1.5.4 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The current javacc target, as implemented in src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/optional/javacc/JavaCC.java is no longer useful. The ant documentation (http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/javacc.html) for this target refers to the http://javacc.dev.java.net home page, which does not offer any suitable JavaCC.zip. In fact, the supplied binaries and sources for the 3.2 version (the only version available), build to a completely regular javacc.jar file, which can easily be added to the classpath, rendering the convoluted hoop-jumping with JavaCC.zip obsolete. Is there any way that the current insanity can be dropped completely, in favour of perhaps an internal check of available classes to determine if the javacc class is present in the classpath? Alternatively, can the documentation on the web about the JavaCC target be updated with a description of how to make the current target work with the binaries and sources for javacc 3.2, which indeed are referred to by the http://javacc.dev.java.net link? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
