Ant itself is compiled correctly. I'm using both java6 and java5 from Sun, using "alternatives", and it works fine. The problem is with some libs included in Debian version. As a workaround, I commented out this code:
# Add the Xerces 2 XML parser in the Debian version #if [ -z "$LOCALCLASSPATH" ] ; then # LOCALCLASSPATH="/usr/share/java/xmlParserAPIs.jar:/usr/share/java/xercesImpl.jar" #else # LOCALCLASSPATH="/usr/share/java/xmlParserAPIs.jar:/usr/share/java/xercesImpl.jar:$LOCALCLASSPATH" #fi These are the jars which are incompatible with Java 1.5.x (JRE included, not only JDK). I commented this out and my builds are now working again. -- ant does not work with JDK 5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264808 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
