ant/maven integration and optional tasks
I'm trying to integrate an Ant build which uses optional tasks
(specifically, the <script> task) into a Maven2 build. The trouble is, I
can't find a way to get the necessary dependencies onto the classpath.
I'm using Maven's antrun plugin to call the Ant build using the <ant>
task. But I don't see any mechanism in the <ant> task for specifying the
classpath that should be used for the invoked build.
Since I also can't see a way with Maven's antrun plugin to specify a
classpath to invoke Ant with, I'm at a dead end.
Is there a general mechanism in Ant for importing dependencies for
optional tasks that might work in this scenario? Ideally I'd like the
Ant build to work when invoked with Ant as well as when invoked through
Mavent, but I'd settle for a solution that only worked with Maven if
that's the best that can be achieved.
Thanks,
L.

Hmm, I missed double-jar requirement for using non-JDK impls, so I can
give that a try. But it does seem odd that Ant couldn't use the
Jdk14RegexpRegexp impl.

Posted by Greg Akins <ga...@insomnia-consulting.org>.
ant sql just uses jdbc.
You'll need the jdbc drivers for your database.
If you dont have access to a database already, then yes, you'll have
to install the database.

Honestly, i googled on the ant SQL task and found out some examples. But if you can let me know what is needed before these tasks can be used , that will save lot of my time (ofcourse if you want).
do i need to install SQL Server on my box ?
what drivers ?
any specific ant package ?
thanks, shailesh

Hi,

Does somebody know what ant package do i need and if somebody can share some ant build snippets, that be great.

Re: ant/maven integration and optional tasks
Posted by Antoine Levy-Lambert <an...@gmx.de>.
Hello Laurie,
please look at this manual page :
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTypes/regexp.html
maybe this paragraph can help you :
The property ant.regexp.regexpimpl governs which regular expression
implementation will be chosen. Possible values for this property are :
a.. org.apache.tools.ant.util.regexp.Jdk14RegexpRegexp
b.. org.apache.tools.ant.util.regexp.JakartaOroRegexp
c.. org.apache.tools.ant.util.regexp.JakartaRegexpRegexp
Also, if you want to use the Oro implementation of regexp, you then need
ant-apache-oro.jar and jakarta-oro.jar in the classpath.
Similarily, you will need jakarta-regexp.jar and ant-apache-regexp.jar in
the last case.
Most optional tasks in ant require at least 2 jars, one containing the
bridge code between ant and the external dependency, the other one being the
external dependency itself.
I am surprised that the org.apache.tools.ant.util.regexp.Jdk14RegexpRegexp
does not work.
Regards,
Antoine

OK, thanks to a response on the Maven list I figured out how to
configure the plugin with the necessary dependencies. However, now I
have a different problem.
Ant is now complaining about the <replaceregex> optional task. According
to the manual, it should be able to use the JDK's regex APIs (I'm using
JDK 1.5). I tried supplying ORO or Jakarta Regex but got the missing
dependencies error with all tree configurations.
What am I missing? Does this task have additional, undocumented
dependencies?
