Problems with tag in a project

Hi all,

I am still having hassles with C/C++ projects and dependencies. I have a
project that depends on other projects, and is configured like this:

  <project name="hoops-feed-configure">
    <configure>
      <arg name="--prefix" path="dest-@@DATE@@"/>
      <arg name="--with-hoops" project="hoops-make-install"
           reference="home" path="dest-@@DATE@@"/>
      <arg name="--with-monacoxml" project="monaco-xml-make-install"
           reference="home" path="dest-@@DATE@@"/>
    </configure>
    <depend project="hoops-make-install"/>
    <depend project="monaco-xml-make-install"/>
    <license name="LICENSE.txt" />
  </project>

The resultant configure line from the above looks like this:

  configure
    --with-hoops=/udd001/hoops/gump/work/hoops
    --with-monacoxml=/udd001/hoops/gump/work/monaco-xml
    --prefix=/udd001/hoops/gump/work/hoops-feed/dest-13102005

The key difference is the missing path in --with-hoops and
--with-monacoxml. In both cases, it picks the project source ddirectory up
correctly, but as the path of "dest-@@DATE@@" is ignored, the library is
being searched for in the wrong place, and ./configure fails.

Is there a different way I should configure the project tag?

Regards,
Graham

Abuse or not, it's working great now :).  No longer is j-t-c dependent on 
how httpd wants to setup it's paths.  In any case, I understand that Gump-3 
will abstract this sort of thing properly.

Yes, this probably is the problem - sorry I didn't spot this earlier.

Our configure/make combo isn't tested that well.  It seems to work
reasonably for httpd's needs but our whole notion of dependencies and
build artifacts is pretty much Java centric - wittness Bill's abuse of
<jar> in the httpd/tomcat-connector situation.

As stated in http://gump.apache.org/metadata/builder.html#property%2Farg, 
you can't mix 'reference=' and 'path=' in an <arg/> tag.  You have to use 
one or the other.

The usual way to set this up would be to define <home nested="dest-@@DATE@@" 
/> (see http://gump.apache.org/metadata/project.html#home) in the 
hoops-make-install project, and just reference="home" in 
hoops-feed-configure.  This frees hoops-feed-configure from knowing about 
how hoops-make-install is setup.  Of course, I don't know how this affects 
the rest of your setup :).
