RE: junitreport problem

2005-04-06 Thread Donald Strong
Hi Mikael, We have had problems with junitreports in the past. Here are a couple of things to look at. Firstly the junitreport task merges the XML files in to one big file. The file resides in the same directory as the xml files generated by the junit task. Is this file being generated? If it i

RE: Memory usage of targets vs macrodefs?

2005-04-04 Thread Donald Strong
Hi David, We have had memory problems with our build script in the past. JUnit tests, of which we have about 5000, were a problem, particularly generating the reports using XSLT. Eventually we broke the build up by spawning Ant calls. This later allowed us to distribute the build/test suite (about

Maven style project description delegating to Ant.

2005-02-14 Thread Donald Strong
Hi all, Has anyone done any work on or know of a project that uses a build configuration similar to Maven but then delegates to Ant targets? Perhaps thats what Maven does now, it has been a while since I looked at it. Last time we tried it Maven was ideal for building and publishing java libr

MatchingTask (derivative) doesn't support nested fileset.

2004-10-14 Thread Donald Strong
I am writing a task that will include a fileset. I extended MatchingTask thinking I would get FileSet suport for free but Ant is barfing. I have also had trouble finding any examples of what to do to process the FileSet. Am I doing the right thing below? Any help appreciated. Regards Donald. --

RE: style task: issues with long filenames

2004-09-14 Thread Donald Strong
Hi Mark, I have seen similar problems to this on Windows 2000 Server. For us, the problem did not occur on Windows XP, which our development is done on, but it showed up on the build machine, which was Windows 2000 Server. If this is the case it has nothing to do with Ant or style sheets or anyth

RE: Could Ant build scripts be compiled?

2003-11-25 Thread Donald Strong
Thanks Conner, I wanted to make this point but didn't want to contradict Scott twice in a row. Sorry Scott. ;^) Consider a non trivial build process that takes, say, 1 hour to do clean build. This is driven by a 3000 line build.xml file. Unless I am mistaken, Ant builds an internal data structu

RE: just not getting it

Brilliant synopsis Laird, Having written build systems in both Make and Ant I throughly agree with you. Two things I would add, for Gregory's benefit. The first is one reason that Make just doesn't work as well with java as it does with other languages is that the dependencies in java are not ob
