Harlan Lieberman-Berg reopened THRIFT-731:
------------------------------------------


This is my fault - I should have checked on Ubuntu before sending in this patch instead of just CentOS.

If someone with commit access would be so kind to revert my patch to un-break the tree, I can get out another patch for this issue tomorrow when I get back into work.  It's not going to be as pretty, unfortunately.  The Autoconf macro that can be easily used for this sort of thing requires 2.62, and we recommend 2.60 (and allow 2.59, though support for that is broken right now).  Since I can't use AC_PATH_PROGS_FEATURE_CHECK, I'll hack something together with M4.

Sorry!

> ./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.
