Hi,
or we have a vote.
One thing is clear: weblogic rmic was broken on ant1.7.0. nobody noticed.
Well I've just tested with Ant 1.6.5 (from svn), and I get exactly the
same error:
[rmic] RemoteTimestampImpl must be a remote interface
implementation and should exist in the classpath
The classpath is fine (and the code works perfectly with compiler="sun")
This is the showstopper for an alpha release right now.
This email from 2001 (Ant 1.4) exhibits the exact same behaviour:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ant-user/200106.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Namely, the weblogic rmic task requires a global CLASSPATH to be set. I
added a CLASSPATH var and all of a sudden the error disappeared. I'm
still not sure it works as I was expecting a WL_stub.class to appear in
the output directory, but the error went away.
Since this problem seems to have been around for 6+ years now, I vote
that we switch off these unit tests and move on.
[Vote] WebLogic Rmic tool sucks so:
[X] enough already, we need ant 1.7.1 released regardless of crappy 3rd
party tools that have never worked properly (update docs to point out
weblogic rmic glaring incompatibilities with ant, switch off the unit
test to get a clean build)
[ ] no lets bang our heads against a brick wall for a few more years
trying to fix this junk
Thanks,
Kev
