Ant 1.4 question with usage in JBoss
I am trying to run the existing example "interest" of JBoss. I am running JBoss2.4 and Ant1.4 on windows 2000 platform. I tested both application, they work fine. But when I try to build the "interest" example I get an exception. the following was received when debug is set to on.
Setting ro project property: ant.file -> C:\jb_tom\jboss2_4\jboss\examples\build

You seem to have a refid= with no value. My first guess.
RefIds are using to refer to a previously declared patternset or path.
do a search in your build.xml file for "refid".
It should have a value assigned.

That's not the right solution, and probably shouldn't really work
(although it does save typing another <property> task :) What you've done
in the above is to both load your environment variables in as properties
that are prefixed with "env" (eg., you'd reference your HOME environment
variable as ${env.HOME}), as well as to set an actual property called
"env" to the value "env". (Guess we need to decide whether it's okay to
allow a single <property> task to both set a property and load in the
environment vars or to beef up the error-checking for <property>.)

I had problem with the same exception. But when I
changed line 16 to the following line everything
worked. I just added the value attribute.
<property name="env" environment="env" value="env" />

Ant prints that error when the <property> task is missing a "value",
"location", or "refid" attribute to go with the "name" attribute. In other
words, if there's a <property> task like:
<property name="foo"/>
instead of like one of:
<property name="foo" value="bar"/>
or
<property name="foo" location="/usr/local/foofile"/>
or
<property name="foo" refid="fooID"/>
I can't say why the build.xml file would have a broken <property>, or what
the actual correction should be, since I don't know anything about the
JBoss stuff or what the copy of the build.xml you have looks like.

Hi Diane,
do you know anything about this exception below ?
C:\jb_tom\jboss2_4\jboss\examples\build>ant intro-interest-compile
Buildfile: build.xml
BUILD FAILED
C:\jb_tom\jboss2_4\jboss\examples\build\build.xml:16: You must specify value, lo
cation or refid with the name attribute
Thank you for your help

tried is at:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/jboss/manual/src/examples/org/jboss/docs/interest/build.xml?rev=1.4&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
If that's the one you have (not necessarily gotten from there), I'd
recommend checking your copy of the file and seeing if it got munged
somehow.

Off-hand I'd say there could be something wrong with your copy of it. I'm
not sure which build.xml it is, but I found one in the examples docs for
"interest", and ran with it (just to verify it parsed okay, since I knew
it wouldn't actually do anything beyond that). It parsed fine. The one I
tried is at:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/jboss/manual/src/examples/org/jboss/docs/interest/build.xml?rev=1.4&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
If that's the one you have (not necessarily gotten from there), I'd
