[jira] [Created] (DERBY-7052) Reordering and (mildly) reorganizing build.xml Ant targets around buildsource

Davide Grandi created DERBY-7052:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Reordering and (mildly) reorganizing build.xml Ant targets around buildsource
                 Key: DERBY-7052
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-7052
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Build tools
    Affects Versions: 10.15.1.3
            Reporter: Davide Grandi


Module dependencies should be reflected by Ant targets dependencies.
And Ant targets execution follows the rules stated in
    https://ant.apache.org/manual/targets.html
so a dependency could be covered (being redundant) by applying transitivity rule
to every dependency's dependecies (please look at the dot+pdf diagrams).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Modules dependencies, by the docs, are :
||module depends||on||
|org.apache.derby.client|org.apache.derby.commons|
|org.apache.derby.engine|org.apache.derby.commons|
|org.apache.derby.locale_*|org.apache.derby.commons|
| | |
|org.apache.derby.tools|org.apache.derby.client|
|org.apache.derby.tools|org.apache.derby.engine|
| | |
|org.apache.derby.optionaltools|org.apache.derby.tools|
| | |
|org.apache.derby.server|org.apache.derby.tools|
| | |
|org.apache.derby.runner|org.apache.derby.server|
| | |
|org.apache.derby.engine|org.osgi.framework|


but actual ant dependencies are (partial target => module map) :

 
||target||depends||and module||depends on||
|buildsource|client| | |
|buildsource |shared| | |
|buildsource|felixStubs| |org.osgi.framework|
|engine|shared|org.apache.derby.engine|org.apache.derby.commons|
|client|shared|org.apache.derby.client|org.apache.derby.commons|
|tools|engine|org.apache.derby.tools|org.apache.derby.engine|
|drda|engine| | |
|runner|optional| | |
|optional|engine| | |


so we expect that building 'engine' target alone will fails due to the lack of
'felixstubs' dependency.
And it fails ("01 ant engine.log") quoting "requires static org.osgi.framework;"

So the best try is to delete (on copy "build-01.xml" of "build.xml") the
dependency
  buildsource => felixstubs
and to put it as last dependency of 'engine' target
Result : success ("02 ant -f build-01.xml engine.txt")

Similarly we can expect that also 'tools' fails, since it really depends on
'client' but this is not explicited in "build.xml".
And it fails ("03 ant -f build-01.xml tools.log") with:
    [javac]     requires static org.apache.derby.client;

So the best try is to switch the 'client' dependency (in copy "build-02.xml" of
"build-01.xml") from 'buildsource' to 'tools'.

Result: success ("04 ant -f build-02.xml tools.log").

The same thing for 'optional' that should depends on 'tools' but depends only on
'engine'.
And it fails ("05 ant -f build-02.xml optional.log") with
    [javac]     requires org.apache.derby.tools;
So we switch the 'tools' dependency from 'buildsource' to 'optional' (in copy
"build-03.xml" of "build.02.xml")
And it succeeds ("06 ant -f build-03.xml optional.log").

Same as 'drda' (aka server) that require 'tools' ("07 ant -f build-03.xml drda.log")
    [javac]     requires org.apache.derby.tools;
that succeds after adding 'tools' dependency to 'drda'
("08 ant -f build-04.xml drda.log")
and also for 'runner' ("09 ant -f build-04.xml runner.log") that requires 'drda'
    [javac]     requires org.apache.derby.server;
and succeeds after adding it into copy "build-05.xml" of "build-04.xml".
("10 ant -f build-05.xml runner.log")

After graphing "build-05.xml" (in "build-05.xml.pdf") one can notice that,
apart from redundant prerequisites (covered later), there's an extra dependency
on 'runner', that in module hierararchy needs only 'drda'.
After duplicating "build-05.xml" in "build-06.xml" and edited, removing
'runner' -> 'optional' prerequisite, build of 'runner' succeeds
("11 ant -f build-06.xml runner.log")

The next step is removing all the extra dependencies.
Given the transitivity of dependencies in this set
A => C (a depends on C)
A => B (a depends on B)
B => C (B depends on C)
the first dependendency is already covered by second and third one, and ant
will ignore it.

After graphing "build-06.xml" (in "build-06.pdf") and focusing on the subset
from 'buildsource' to 'shared' we can reduce it (in "build-07.xml")applying the
previous rule and deleting these dependencies:

- buildSource => shared
- buildsource => drda
- buildsource => engine
- drda => engine
- optional => engine

before continuing there are some test that can be passed :
- single target checking : a serie of deep clean + single target builds e.g. :
  ant -f build-07.xml clobber
  svn st --no-ignore
  del/rmdir items marked with "I"
  rmdir /Q /S classes.pptesting
  rmdir /Q /S jars
  del tools\java\junit.jar
  ant -f build-07.xml shared
  ... for shared, felixstub, engine, client, tools, drda, storeless, optional,
          runner

so the full build list, refactored in a windows batch command, is 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@echo off
call ant clobber -file %1 -quiet -silent > nul 2>&1
if errorlevel 1 (
    echo error %ERRORLEVEL% during first clobber
    exit /B 1
    )

for %%t in (
        shared
        felixStubs
        engine
        client
        tools
        drda
        storeless
        optional
        runner
        buildsource
    ) do (
        call ant clobber -file %1 -quiet -silent > nul 2>&1
        rmdir /Q /S classes.pptesting > nul 2>&1
        rmdir /Q /S jars              > nul 2>&1
        del tools\java\junit.jar      > nul 2>&1
        rmdir /Q /S classes           > nul 2>&1
        rmdir /Q /S generated         > nul 2>&1
        rmdir /Q /S release           > nul 2>&1
        svn st --no-ignore | find "I    "
        echo ant -file %1 %%t
        call ant -file %1 -quiet -silent %%t
        if errorlevel 1 exit /B 1
        echo.
    )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Executing
    "ant -f build-07.xml -quiet felixstubs"
we get an unexpected fail (but tests exist for this) and looking at
    "13 ant -f build-07.xml felixStubs.log"
we can notice that the root cause is an undefined variable.
adding a dependency on 'state' to 'felixStubs' (on "build-08.xml") the build succeed
("14 ant -f build-08.xml felixStubs.log")
Graphing "build-08.xml" (in "build.08.pdf") we notice that there's still a
redundant dependency :
    shared => init
covered by
    shared => state => showenv => init
and, just on the right, another redundancy
    init => makeOutDirs
already covered by
    init => setCompilerProperties => prebuild => makeOutDirs
and, finally, a dependency
    engine => state
already covered by
    engine => felixStubs => state
and
    engine => shared => state
so these can be removed.
Building "build-09.xml" succeeds, and so the run test for all the targets
("15 test targets.cmd build-09.xml")
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The last tests are
  a) log comparison
  b) file comparison

we define a cleaning sequence
--
call ant clobber -f build-09.xml -quiet -silent
rmdir /Q /S classes.pptesting
rmdir /Q /S jars             
rmdir /Q /S classes          
del tools\java\junit.jar     
svn st --no-ignore
--
and, for the standard build sequence
--
<cleaning sequence>
ant -quiet all
ant -quiet buildjars
--
we generate a standard log, a verbose log
<cleaning sequence>
ant all       -f build.xml    >  "all - build.xml.log"
ant buildjars -f build.xml    >> "all - build.xml.log"

<cleaning sequence>
ant all       -f build.xml -verbose >  "all - build.xml - verbose.log"
ant buildjars -f build.xml -verbose >> "all - build.xml - verbose.log"

<cleaning sequence>
ant all       -f build-09.xml >  "all - build-09.xml.log"
ant buildjars -f build-09.xml >> "all - build-09.xml.log"

<cleaning sequence>
ant all       -f build-09.xml -verbose >  "all - build-09.xml - verbose.log"
ant buildjars -f build-09.xml -verbose >> "all - build-09.xml - verbose.log"

all differences seems ok.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After looking at "build-09.xml.pdf" we notice that
    buildsource => init
is already covered by many path, eg
    buildsource => optional => tools => client => shared => state => showenv =>
        => init
and also
    buildsource => prebuild
is covered by 
    ... => init => setCompilerProperties => prebuild
and also
    buildsource => setCompilerProperties
by the same path(s), so 'init', 'prebuild' and 'setCompilerProperties' can be
deleted from 'buildsource' prerequisites in "build-10.xml".
Tests and binary compare are ok.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looking at "build-10.xml.pdf" and "build-10.buildsource-expanded-01.pdf" we
notice that 'build' target, 5th buildsource dependency, is ant-called anyway
from 'engine' and can be deleted from 'buildsource' dependencies in
"build-11.xml". Tests and binary compares pass.

The only problem remaining is the 'generateSecurityPolicies' target that fails
if built alone (due to a deep buried dependency)
