I defined a simple versioning target of the form:

When I look at the source code, my 1.5.1 source drop says JAVA_CLASS_HELPER 
should be "org.apache.tools.ant.filters.util.JavaClassHelper", but I see from 
the comments at the top of the ClassConstants.java file that "This filter uses 
the BCEL external toolkit". So I'm wondering if somehow the 1.5.1 classes I 
downloaded were compiled from the source I'm looking at.

These are experimental at this stage. They have been added but not used much 
or extensively tested. I think more work remains in this areas.

In Maven we embed the use of Ant and I would like Ant to use the
ClassWorlds (classworlds.werken.com) mechanism we have in place and
remove the use the commons-sandbox Grant project.
We are not using Grant at the moment. I think you are probably referring to 
Maven, but just to be clear. As for ClassWorlds, how would you envisage this 
would be used in Ant? I'm not clear where it would fit.

Also, I'm a little concerned about violating the classloading hierarchy - it 
leads to Linkage errors in my experience. I have the same concern with the 
ClassLoader task.

If this is indeed true could someone point me at the the relevant code?
The ClassLoader task is here
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/ant/src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/Classloader.java
The PropertyHelper clas is here but you'll need to follow the relationships 
to see how it is used
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/ant/src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/PropertyHelper.java

Also, someone pointed James at the lifecycle document for taskdefs but
can't seem to find it, could someone point me at that also?
I don't know who James is in this case, but the document is here

No problem. I have found a way to override the AntClassLoader.

ClassWorlds is what is going to be used to fully control classloading in
Maven. It is also being used in the Plexus avalon-based container which
is what Maven will eventually sit upon.

Well, I plan to by pass the classloading mechanism which is controlled
by ClassWorlds. ClassLoading in general is much easier to control using
ClassWorlds. I'm definitely aware of potential problems but I've got my
share of ClassLoader experience :-)

Execute.getProcEnvironment causes Exception in combination with a MySQL database

   Summary: Execute.getProcEnvironment causes Exception in
combination with a MySQL database

OS/Version: Windows NT/2K

Hello,

i used your ANT1.5.1 org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Execute.getProcEnvironment
method to get the System properties under W2K(Service Pack3) with SUN's 
JDK1.4.1_01.
When trying to access a MySQL database the complete application crashes.
I've solved this by NOT USING getProcEnvironment for this application !;-)
I can't point to the problem, even before loading the database driver with
reflection the application crashes.
Also when trying to access a remote database the application crashes.
When not trying to access a database, all seems to work fine.

Calling process:
ANT for calling application which calls getProcEnvironment to resolve path for
loading shared library. Database is MySQL and i accessed with
org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver

See error in attachement.

could you try to allocate more memory for ANT




to use 200 Mb of memory for instance


(this is just an example, 64 Mb might do)




==> under Windows SET ANT_OPTS="-Xmx200m -Xms200m"


==> under UNIXexport ANT_OPTS="-Xmx200m -Xms200m"

Then could you try starting without the new generational GC in JDK 1.4.1. A 
colleage observed that this new GC created *hundreds* of thread, or error seems 
to be that you cannot create any more thread. Switching to the old GC using 
just a few threads might solve your issue!?!?! --DD

Sounds reasonable, this will explain the rapid-memory-consumption-peak.
O.k., seems to be a JDK bug. I've tried:
-Xnoclassgc and -Xincgc
both doesn't work. Any other suggestions ? Otherwise you can close this bug and
send a bug report to SUN's JDK, because you can explain the problem in more
detail and your community is greater !;-)

RE: [ANN] Ant 1.5.2 Released!

Congratulations.

One minor quibble - WHATSNEW does not mention any of the significant
revisions to the starteam optional tasks, which are in this release.

Give the mirrors time to catch up, or visit 
the main distribution site.

Re: ClassLoader and Properties handling behaviour

The ClassLoader task is no longer using the classloading hierarchy - the
initial version did, and it resulted in the expected Linkage errors ( and 
related workarounds ). This was needed in [embed] to work around ant1.5 
limitations - but when I merged I removed all the hacks, they are not needed
in 1.6.

By default it'll just add more jars to the main ant loader - and rely on the
lazy creation of tasks.

The  task can be extended to deal with hierarchies and
direct/reverse delegation - but the most common use will be to extend the
main ant loader.

building optional tasks

2003-03-03 Thread Steve Cohen 
I cannot be sure, but it seems that the procedure for building optional
tasks has migrated away from what it used to be.  I am trying to build
1.5.2 from the sources and unzipping the sources no longer creates a
lib/optional directory.  However, the lib/optional directory is still
needed even though I couldn't find anywhere within the documentation
that jars needed for optional tasks should be placed there in order to
be built into the optional.jar.

Finally, the Library Dependencies section of
http://ant.apache.org/manual/index.html still states that for the ftp
and telnet tasks, netcomponents.jar must be downloaded from
www.savarese.org/oro/downloads.  However, the code of the ant tasks has
been changed to use
commons-net-1.0.0.jar for these tasks, which is now obtainable from
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons.net/download.html.  While I haven't
tried the manual's way, I doubt it will work since the ant code now uses
the new commons-net package names.

Noted.  We (I) will ensure that the main
distribution directory is specified in 
future announcements.

Re: [ANN] Ant 1.5.2 Released!

2003-03-03 Thread Erik Abele 
Hi guys,
while trying to download the new Ant release I realized that the mirrors 
have not yet picked up the new package. Up to now it seems that it is 
only available via apache.org/dist/ant/...

This is slightly annoying for ordinary users since they most likely will 
get a 'Not Found' message when trying to download.

Not sure what the best possible way to handle this would be, but perhaps 
it's necessary to wait one or two days before announcing a release so 
that the mirrors get a chance to pick it up...

cheers,
Erik
