Bug 59799 – ant-optional package does not build optional jar bsf.jar in /usr/share/ant/lib

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mark 2004-08-08 13:09:09 UTC]

I am trying to use some of the optional tasks in ant. In particular the script task. This relies on the bean scripting framework jar. When I emerge ant the ant-bsf.jar that is built in the lib directory is empty. Emerging ant-optional does buils some of the optional jars in /usr/share/ant/lib but not the bsf jar.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge ant-optional
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
some of the optional jars are built the bsf jar is not built.

Expected Results:  
The bsf..jar should be built.

This can be fixed by adding "bsf-2.3" to the packages="[...]" line of the ebuild.

[Comment 2 Al Maw 2004-09-01 12:46:39 UTC]

Once you've patched the ant-optional ebuild, make sure you add bsf-2.3 to the LOCALCLASSPATH line in the /usr/bin/ant script to make it all work.

maybe this one can be closed since the package 'ant-optional' disappeared?

[Comment 4 Thomas Matthijs (RETIRED) 2004-11-30 13:23:52 UTC]

its named ant-tasks, but still has the problem

[Comment 5 Jan Brinkmann (RETIRED) 2005-03-29 08:07:51 UTC]

re-added generation of the bsf.jar in the -r7 version, fixed in cvs. thanks
