Problems with upgrade to Ant 1.7.0 RC1 and Java 1.5
Hi,
we tried to upgrade our system to Java 1.5 (jdk1.5.0_09) and Ant 1.7.0 RC1. Sadly we ran into several problems. We also use svnant 1.1.0 RC2 and ant-contrib 1.0b2.
I would like to know if any of you ran into similar problems - I'm moderately experienced with fiddling with ant, but not an expert. (The Ant upgrade is necessary due to a bug in the ant recorder task that is supposedly fixed in v1.7. The Java upgrade is not strictly necessary, but would be nice because we started to upgrade our Java projects to 1.5.)
Here are the problems:
(1) Logfiles are emptied on the stop command. More precisely, I have a target that looks like this:
[begin target]
<record name="${JavaLog}" action="start" loglevel="info"/>
[some antcalls and antcallbacks that produce output]
<record name="${JavaLog}" action="stop"/>
[do something with the log file and end target]
After this call, the log file is empty. If I either fail just before the "stop", or remove the "stop" command, then everything is fine. The code works fine with ant 1.6.5, but does not work with Ant 1.7.0RC1 regardless of the Java version (1.4.2_06 or jdk1.5.0_09).
(2) The <sql> command hangs if I try to access an oracle database. This works fine with either ant version as long as we use Java 1.4, but fails with either ant version with Java 1.5.
(3) The <svn> command times out after some time and reports
[svn] svn: PROPFIND request failed on [Repository]
svn: Malformed reply from SOCKS server
Any Ideas?
Regards, Thomas

Unfortunately not. I couldn't reproduce the problem with a small dummy buildfile, and I'm afraid at the moment there is simply not enough time to check out what exactly causes the problem. It's on my to-do-list though.
BTW, I do have a similar problem with our complete build. During the build (several hours worth of stuff including Java, C++, localization, CVS tagging, whatever) the log file (same call as above, record from beginning to end on info level) grows nicely and contains the output. After the build I end up with 8MB of zero bytes in the logfile, and a single line stating "BUILD SUCCESSFUL" at the end...

First thanks for testing with ant 1.7rc1.

Can you provide a small complete build file that shows
the problem please?

Do not know much about much about differenences in the nw stack between
java 1.4 and java5, perhaps there is a problem with your proxy configuration
(it may be picked up for java1.4 but ignored in java5).

ok. Which is probably now routing via the proxy.

OK. these are java based so would pick up the proxy settings of ant.

yes, these are system (well, user) wide, and what is passed down to the
JVM.

I'm glad things are working with SVN, worried about oracle. Post the
-diagnostics to see what Ant thinks the world looks like.
This is the main change in ant network behaviour for java1.5 over 1.4,
and its meant to help, because the JVM can pick up the proxy settings
from the server. I'm starting to worry if it is a benefit, or whether we
should pull it from the release.
1. there is no consistent model of 'the proxy' on linux
2. windows has one, but as can be seen, things dont always route through
proxies.
3. its a dog debugging other users's proxy settings.
What do users/developers think? Should Ant1.7 roll back to
no-proxy-by-default?

Nope, a remote server using Oracle 9.2 jdbc drivers.

Using the svnant task from <http://subclipse.tigris.org/svnant.html>.

Manual proxy configuration to a proxy server and port 8080 (at least that's what my IE says, I think these are the global windows settings?)

Yep, I'll do that. I just prefer to confirm that I made no mistake before I report a bug...

Svn checkout works, database access does not.
Thanks for your help, Thomas

That I know nothing about

Ok. I've seen this once before, and I think we need to document it.
What is the URL to the database? is it localhost?

could be related. Whose SVN command? Something pure java, or a wrapper
round the native lib?
On Java1.5, Ant sets the system proxy to be whatever the OS provides.
Oracle appears to use the proxy settings and http as a transport, so can
get confused. Maybe the svn task is similar
0. Which OS?
1. What are your proxy settings?
2. Run ant -diagnostics and file a bugrep
2. does everything work if you run ant with -noproxy ?
