[jira] Commented: (THRIFT-731) configure doesn't check for ant >= 1.7

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-731?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12997203#comment-12997203 ] 

Nevo Hed commented on THRIFT-731:
---------------------------------

I also installed a new ant (1.8.2) without removing an older one.
I also have multiple Java environments.

My ANT_HOME & JAVA_HOME variables seem to be set correctly through /etc/profile.d/java.sh
(and marked for export)

I tested these both logged in as myself and as root (su -l).

but my problem was when running 'sudo make install'.   The 'sudo' manual taked about the '-E' option to preserve the environment, but I would assume that this would not be a desirable option to use

While I know my way around make, but not so much with ant or java, I was wondering if you could comment if the following is a reasonable alternative

$ sudo make JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME ANT_HOME=$ANT_HOME install 

(explicitly passing the 2 variables to make)

> ./configure on a machine with ant 1.6 successfully runs, even though it's required for the Java build step - otherwise you get
> BUILD FAILED
> /home/henry/thrift-0.2.0/lib/java/build.xml:86: Class org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.ConditionTask doesn't support the nested "typefound" element.
> Upgrading to ant 1.7.1 fixed the build failure, but would be nice if configure gave a clue.
