Re: pattern test/*/**

the attached test-case creates 3 jar which show the following:

test1.jar: (just a test)
the pattern test/** matches the folder test/ itself and it's contents

test2.jar: (BUG)
this jar does not contain test/test2.txt although the pattern test/*/** 
shouldn't match against it.

test3.har: (BUG)
this jar does not contain test3.txt although the pattern test3.txt/** 
shouldn't match against any file-name but only directories.

each of the pattern is used to exclude stuff from the created jar.

suggestion:
1) any pattern like a/** matches the folder a itself (but not a file 
called a) and any file/folder starting with a/ (as prooven with 
test1.jar above, and it's even a statement in ant's docs i think)
2 patterns like a/*/** should be matched partly:
if a/b/c is matched against a/*/**, the b matches the first *.
afterwords a/b/c should be matched against a/b/** (the * is replaced by 
it's match)

regards,
   Sven

Problems building EJBs

Hi,

I have an ant build task that build EJBs using Bluestone.  Everything
compiles and builds, however the final step of the EJB  build process is
to copy the jar file to the target destination.  The copy fails with a
"file in use" error.  I am forking during the java call to build the
EJBs and have also tried introducing a sleep to ensure that all file
locks have been released.  This process fails on some machines and
succeeds on others - the pattern seems to be fairly random.

        <java
classname="com.bluestone.gui.ejb11.deploymentdescriptor.generateEjbModules"
fork="yes" failonerror="${failonerror}">
            <arg line="${tmplib}/${NOEJB}.jar ${tmplib}/${EJB}.jar"/>
            <classpath>
                <path refid="classpath.jdk"/>
                <path refid="classpath.jdk_ext"/>
                <path refid="classpath.bluestone"/>
                <path refid="classpath.bluestoneSAclasses"/>
            </classpath>
        </java>
    <copy todir="${JAR_DIR}" file="${tmplib}/${EJB}.jar"/>

Any suggestions on how to fix the above problem?

Thanks!

Starting JBoss from ANT

Hi,
I had posted a message earlier about running JUnit tests inside the same VM as JBoss so as to enable the testing of local interfaces and I did get a few responses back. Thanks everyone!

Now one of the most common response was to start Jboss environment from within my tests.Hence i started by adding the following lines in my build.xml to start JBoss server

.
   
   
   

     <target name="runjboss" depends="init">
      <exec dir = "${jboss.home}/bin"
         executable = "${jboss.home}/bin/run.bat"
           os = "Windows 2000">
        </exec>
    </target>

However, now it starts JBoss but then does not execute any tasks after this one as JBoss just holds on to the VM. Exec task does not support the FORK option either, but in any case I do not wish to use the fork option as it will beat the whole purpose of running the tests inside the same JVM as JBoss. Does anyone has any idea how to get around this problem?

P.S I know Cactus is one of the way out but at the moment, my project team is not too keen on trialling out another new tool and Junit would be the easiest way for our implementation.

In short I would apprecate if anyone has already done this and could give me specific directions or advise me on how to run the JUnit tests inside the same VM as JBoss so that I can test my local interfaces as well!

Also attached is my build.xml file for anyone who wants to investigate this further,

Thanks a lot in advance,

Cheers
Dushy

Re: Zip update problem in Ant1.5.1Beta1

Uhm, yes, sort of.

<http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10755>

In 1.4.1 it didn't work (it would always update), in 1.5.1 it uses the
same logic as update="false", i.e. compare the files to add to the
archive itself, which is obviously non-intuitive.

This is rather high on my list for Ant 1.5.2 (if there should be one)
or 1.6.

RE: TelnetTask help needed!

Maybe you can try the reads and writes with their string attribute:

<telnet server="localhost">
	  <read  string="C:\>"/>
	  <write string="dir"/>
	  <read  string="C:\>"/>
</telnet>

Hope this helps,

Nick.

I've the following script to use the Telnet task using Ant1.5 on win2000:

<project name="telnetTest" default="telnet">
<target name="telnet">
	<telnet server="localhost">
	  <read>C:\></read>
	  <write>dir</write>
	  <read>C:\></read>
	</telnet>
  </target>
</project>

Ant seems to be waiting for the 'C:\>' input stream forever. I know I must
have
done something wrong in the <read> sub-task.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

RE: ANT and ClearCase integration

There's an optional clearcase task - we use it at work.  It will do basic
checkout/checkin but nothing more.  The source code is available (of
course).

If you want some details, the task connects to cleartool and executes
commands under the hood.  There is no reason this task couldn't be extended
to include other common clearcase automated tasks (like making branches),
but that would be coding exercise (I've looked and almost started once, but
just can't find the time right now).

Hope that helps.  Have fun! - Bob

No, <exec> is not good enough. that's why he asked the question.
I've heard of some clearcase tasks. If they work the way CtCmd or CAL work,
then it is the answer.

I haven't used the clearcase tasks, so I cannot comment.
Would like to know from people who have used them though!

RE: TelnetTask help needed!

Check you have the latest Win2k service packs.
I've seen problems scripting telnet sessions on the plain Win2k server installation (though that wasn't
using Ant).
