http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13084 jsp compilation with jikes fails ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-10-08 04:46 ------- I'm trying to use jikes-1.17 under windows and it has the same issue. No - encoding option. However, there are already bugs reported on this on the jikes site. See: http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/bugs/? func=detailbug&bug_id=2645&group_id=10 and http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/bugs/? func=detailbug&bug_id=2889&group_id=10 and http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/bugs/? func=detailbug&bug_id=2963&group_id=10 Looks like the solution is here: <quotes frombug="2889"> <quote> There is no iconv support under Windows and the ICU support requires ICU so you would need to build it yourself. I don't see any way to build a Windows version that supports -encoding. Oh, also there are cross compile problems since we could not detect iconv support even if it existed. It seems like fixing the docs to mention that this option is not available on all systems is the way to go. </quote> <quote> This is because Windows does not support encoding transformations by default, and we don't want to ship a secondary .dll to accompany Jikes. If you want encoding, you must download the iconv package, build it, then build Jikes yourself. Or else write your own decoder and contribute it as a patch. </quote> </quotes> So, if someone took their advice and did a custom compile of jikes to enable the -encoding option and provided it to the Tomcat community, our problems would be solved. Anyone have the knowledge and time to do this? Jake -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
