Bug 278806 – dev-java/jpf: jpf-tools.jar doesn't contain org.java.plugin.tools.ant.DocTask

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Bart Van Loon 2009-07-23 07:29:59 UTC]

after emerging dev-java/jpf, the /usr/share/jpf-1.5/lib/jpf-tools.jar package doesn't contain the org.java.plugin.tools.ant.DocTask class, although it is registered in the org/java/plugin/tools/ant/jpf-tasks.properties file inside the same package.

this results in every jpf-* task in an buildfile to fail, as ant will complain it cannot find the DocTask class.

a quick fix is to remove the line declaring the jpf-doc ant task form the properties file, but of course, that's not a long-term option. it makes your ant build script work again, however (as long as they don't contain any jpf-doc tasks).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge jpg
2. run ant with any jpf- task
Actual Results:  
BUILD FAILED
typedef class org.java.plugin.tools.ant.DocTask cannot be found

Expected Results:  
BUILD SUCCESSFUL

:-)

this happens with dev-java/jpg-1.5.1 by the way

Created attachment 251237 [details, diff]
Removes missing task from definitions

In the ebuild it says jpf-doc task will only be added on demand due to a missing dependency. I do not need this task myself so the attached patch is sufficient to fix my issue.

Changes:
- remove missing task from definitions
- move to EAPI 3

eapi5 would be better ;)

This was pmasked and removed.
