Hello!
I have a strange problem when compiling a project using an ANT task that
doesn't show up when compiling directly in Eclipse.
To build our projects, we have a standardized building system that
consists of many XML files and did its job (afaik) well in the past. Now
I have a project uses the java.util.regex package, but whenever I try to
build it, only the org.apache.regex package is found, and javac
complains. Here's the output:
[javac] Compiling 9 source files to
C:\DEVELOPMENT\Workspaces\TAJ-1-CodingStandardsCustomChecks\bin
[javac]
C:\DEVELOPMENT\Workspaces\TAJ-1-CodingStandardsCustomChecks\src\com\giniality\taj\v1\checkstyle\plugin\UCImplClassPackageConstructorOnly.java:118:
cannot resolve symbol
[javac] symbol : method matcher (java.lang.String)
[javac] location: class org.apache.regexp.RE
[javac] return getRegexp().matcher(aClassIdent.getText()).find();
[javac] ^
...
corresponding source:
return getRegexp().matcher(aClassIdent.getText()).find();
The error occurs in all 9 classes, since they all use regular expressions.
When I modify the source to split the statement (so the import
java.util.regex is used), it says:
[javac] Compiling 9 source files to
C:\DEVELOPMENT\Workspaces\TAJ-1-CodingStandardsCustomChecks\bin
[javac]
C:\DEVELOPMENT\Workspaces\TAJ-1-CodingStandardsCustomChecks\src\com\giniality\taj\v1\checkstyle\plugin\UCImplClassPackageConstructorOnly.java:120:
incompatible types
[javac] found : org.apache.regexp.RE
[javac] required: java.util.regex.Pattern
[javac] Pattern p = getRegexp();
[javac] ^
...
corresponding source:
Pattern p = getRegexp();
Matcher m = p.matcher(aClassIdent.getText());
return m.find();
The package org.apache.regexp.RE is definitely the wrong one, but when I
modify the sourcecode to explicitly import to java.util.regex, the
compiler throws a "incompatible type" error. One way or another, only
org.apache.regex gets found, while java.util.regex doesn't.
I'm a bit of a newbie with ANT (I didn't create the build system), so
forgive me if the answer to my question seems obvious. Anyway, I'd
really appreciate your help because i'm definitely stuck.
Many thanks in advance,
Michael Böckling
