Ant Question

Hi I'm running this block of ant code,
<target name="tests"
               depends="ant15"
               description="Runs junit tests">
          <mkdir dir="${testreport.dir}"/>
                    <property name="testinputs.dir" location="../im"/>
                    <property name="testcases" value="HptlTest.class"/>
                    <junit printsummary="yes"
                           fork="yes"
                           forkmode="perBatch"
                           haltonfailure="no"
                           showoutput="yes"
                           failureProperty="tests.have.failed">
                         <jvmarg value="-Dtestinputs.dir=${testinputs.dir}"/>
                        <formatter type="xml" />
                            <classpath path="../test/bin/classes"/>
                         <test todir="../test/bin/classes/" name="com.test.domain.HptlTest"/>
                   </junit>
                    <junitreport todir="${testreport.dir}">
                          <fileset dir="${testreport.dir}">
                            <include name="TEST-*.xml"/>
                          </fileset>
                          <report todir="${testreport.dir}"/>
              </junitreport>
                   <echo>Tests task completed!</echo>
                    <fail if="tests.have.failed"
          message="Unit tests failed - Report is available in ${report}"/>
    </target>
however I get this exception,
    [junit] Running com.test.domain.HptlTest
    [junit] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/sf/hibernate/HibernateException
    [junit]     at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method)

    [junit] Test com.raytheon.jetts.domain.HptlTest FAILED
[junitreport] Transform time: 600ms
basically my hibernate2.jar cannot be found in order to run the Junit test method, how can I load all my necessary jars at once in ant,
I know the location of all the jars but I don't know how to load them into the classpath for this target to run successfully,
could someone show me an example of how to do this?
Thanks in advance?

Specify the location of the junit JAR within a <classpath> element in the <junit> task. See the Ant apache task 'javac' for examples of what a <classpath> element nested inside of a task looks like.

EJB newbie - ant question

Hi,
This is an ant question. Hope it is ok for me to ask this here.
I have a windows xp machine.
I have ant installed in C:\libraries\apache-ant-1.6.1
ANT_HOME=C:\libraries\apache-ant-1.6.1\
PATH has C:\libraries\apache-ant-1.6.1\bin
ANT home is a system variable.
Inspite of this, I am not able to use ant.
I get the following error. Am i missing something?
ANT_HOME is set incorrectly or ant could not be located. Please set ANT_HOME.
Thanks,
Suma

Hi !
please do the following
1. go to the desktop and right click on the mycomputer and select properties
2.click advanced tab on the properties
3. then click on the environment variables.
then in the environment variables choose path for the system variables
in that path
suppose you installed ant in c:\libraries
edit path: c:\libraries\ant1.6.1\bin;.;
and also go to the systemvariable classpath
and edit classpath as
add this
c:\libraries\ant1.6.1\lib;.;
then close the properties box
open the command prompt
and type ant
definetly it will work...

Basic Ant Question

Any Ant experts out there? This is such a basic question and I'm surprised it's not attacked point-blank in the Ant docs. I must be missing something.
I'm trying to use ant to build a makefile that can be used on both Unix and Windows. Basically the only difference between the two environments will be the name of the company root directory (designated by the environment variable CAEROOT which is defined under both OS's).
How can I access that environment variable with ant??? The obvious attempt shown below doesn't work because I guess Ant thinks it's a property.
<code>
<project name="XMLDBBridge" default="compile" basedir=".">

<property name="src" value="src"/>
<property name="build" value="classes"/>
<property name="caeroot" value="${CAEROOT}/"/>
<target name="init">

<tstamp/>

<mkdir dir="${build}"/>
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="init">

<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${build}" classpath="${caeroot}/JLib/OracleJDBC/;
${caeroot}/JLib/OracleXDK/lib/xsu12.jar"/>
</target>
<target name="clean">

<delete dir="${build}"/>
</target>
</project>
</code>

In case anyone else ever has this same problem.
I finally figured out how to get environment variables working in ant. It's quite nice but doesn't really figure anywhere in the docs even though I feel its one of the key usages for ant.
<code>
<project name="XMLDBBridge" default="compile" basedir=".">

<property name="src" value="src"/>
<property name="build" value="classes"/>
<property environment="envvar"/>
<target name="init">

<tstamp/>

<mkdir dir="${build}"/>
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="init">

<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${build}" classpath="${envvar.CAEROOT}/JLib/OracleJDBC/;
${envvar.CAEROOT}/JLib/OracleXDK/lib/xsu12.jar"/>
</target>
<target name="clean">

<delete dir="${build}"/>
</target>
</project>

Ant question: difference btwn source-path/compiler-source-path/include-libraries

I have a few questions about build.xml include/lib directories (questions in xml file)
<mxmlc>
<source-path="../frameworks"/>
<compiler.source-path path-element="path to include actionscript include similar to c include"/>
<compiler.include-libraries dir="${basedir}">
<include name="I have no idea what this is. Does flex generate binaries similar to how c compilers generate .so or .dll?"/>
</compiler.include-libraries>
</mxmlc>
1. What's the difference between source-path and compiler.source-path
2. So what exactly is a compiler.include-libraries? Just curious what produces a library.
I've had success accessing actions script files that reside in other directories using compiler.source-path but not source-path. Any help appreciated
Regards,
Monty

Ant questions: for Swing apps?

I have used Ant for my J2EE programs by deploying the ear file to the server. For my swing desktop apps I have used an executable Jar file, or JBuilder makes me a windows .exe file.
Can you use ant builds to make something appropriate for deploying Swing apps?
Thanks!

WebLogic/Ant question

I have a folder containing a whole bunch of EJB deployment descriptors. I've been developing in JBoss (because it's free!) but now need to deploy under WebLogic, which requires, in addition to the J2EE requirements, this weblogic-ejb-jar.xml. Is there a good way to automate the creation of these in Ant when it's building the project?

Ant cannot create or write to text files, specifically an XML file. It can however copy an XML file, paste, rename or wrap it in a JAR file. I highly recommend using Ant for your builds, but I don't think it will help you create and XML file.

Newbie ANT question

as my codebase is growing, and the number of applications within in are increasing I figured it would be a smart move to switch to using ANT, but I am having a bit of trouble configuring it to work the way i would like. I have read several tutorials, but they dont seem to get into enough detail.
Basically, all I want to do, is compile only specific packages related to an application, and then run the main method of that application.
In addition, I want to jar up those specific packages only.
Since, I have several large applications all under the same root
directory, I figured this would help reduce compile time, and allow me
to be a bit more organized.
If anyone could give me some hints, or point me in the right direction. I
would appreciate it!
thanks!

so I am trying something like this:
<target name="jar" depends="dist" description="generate the jar" >
<jar destfile="${dist}/app.jar">
<fileset dir="${classes}/com/domain/package1"/>
<fileset dir="${classes}/com/domain/package2"/>
</jar>
</target>
What I want is a new jar file which has all the classes in these directories (recursively).
But I also want to maintain the directory hierarchy. i.e. com/domain/package1...but I cant figure this out, and all of the subdirectories from package1 & package2 are on the base level.

"Deploy portal with ant" question

Hello Experts!
I am quite new to WebCenter, and I have a requirement to automate compile and deploy tasks of my Portal Application (Framework Application). I have read some docs and blogs and this forum too. Could you clarify me the difference between following:
- deploy through ojdeploy
- wldeploy
- python script (WLST)?

ojdeploy allows you to use the Deployment Targets defined in your JDeveloper project/workspace. I have found this the simplest way to package up my code into an ADF Library JAR or an EAR file.
wldeploy is an ant wrapper for the functionality provided by weblogic.Deployer i.e. deploy related functions.
wlst is a jython based command-line utility that provides deployer functions and also administrative functions. I prefer using wlst for my deployments. I usually invoke wlst via the "exec" task in Ant.

Ant Questions

Does Ant uses his own JVM to run programs( with <java> command )?
Does Ant uses his own Compiler to compile source files( with <compile> command )?

Import-ant question

There's an easy answer to this, I just don't know it.
import java.lang.Math;
public class Jtest
public static void main(String[] args)
double a, b=0.0,c = 0.0;
a = pow(b,c);
I get an error saying the pow(double,double) is not defined for the type Jtest
if i do:
a = java.lang.Math.pow (x,y);
then no problem, but since i have imported it, i shouldn't have to do this.
what am i doing wrong?
Thanks

...just a correction of the above: you vannot create an instance of java.lang.Math class! because it's constructor is final.
The correct way of using java.lang.Math is the static way:
Math.pow(x, y)/Andrew

You gave a default target in the build.xml, and then didn't define the target.
This is an Ant question. You're better off asking Ant questions on an Ant forum.

Can I use the Apple Discussion software?

I have my own web server and I was looking for some good forum software. I usually use phpBB. However, I started dreaming of forum software that would be great and remembered how much I like the Apple Discussions forums.
I am sure the answer is no, but it does not hurt to ask. Does Apple have any plans to make their forums software available for other people to use?
If this is not the proper forum for this topic, I apologize. It did not seem to fit anywhere else.
Thanks,
Jonathan

I agree. I am never sure when to mark something as a question because it may be quick or it may be a hard one and trying to decide who gets credit for what comments seems like a lot more work than I am looking for usually.
You had a definite Question. I do not see the confusion in marking it as such
clearly you did, it certainly was not a statement. Others do the work to help.

Posting here as noone on the javadoc forum...

I would like to generate the javadoc for some packages only, I tried to put a list of packages in the packagenames parameter, but I have got the following message:
.... build.xml:85: No source files and no packages have been specified.
Here is my build script sample:
<target name="javadoc" depends="setup-classpath">
<javadoc
packagenames="com.etil.sudetp.eap com.etil.sudetp.eap.message"
source="${basedir}/src"
sourcepath="${basedir}/src"
destdir="${basedir}/doc"
use="true"
author="false"
version="true"
</target>
Thanks for your help.

nasch_ is right plus your usage of the source attribute is not correct.
Please see the answers to your post in the Javadoc forum.
You really should be a little bit more patient. Just because the Javadoc forum is rather low traffic, it does not mean that the chances for (good) answers increase when posting in a less appropriate, high-traffic forum ... and this is actually an ANT question and not a Javadoc question, so the best place to ask this would have been the ANT mailing list.
