Build with Harmony (WAS: Xerces-J compilation error)
I'm attempting to run the build scripts with Harmony. What's the expected
building convention? What JDK is normally used, is the build.bat/sh script
used, or is Ant invoked directly? What version of Ant is known to work.
In looking at the build.bat script, it seems like it won't work for Sun's
JDK 6, as there isn't a 'classes.zip' in the JDK_HOME/lib folder.

FYI - The latest Harmony milestone 5.0M7 includes the compatibility
classes necessary to keep stylebook running, however the 'suncompat'
libraries need to be enabled manual. If enabled, the Xerces build
should work without error, however, no javadoc is produced, as that
tool hasn't been completed.

Hi Nathan,
It's an old project called Stylebook [1]. Xerces and Xalan still use it for
building documentation. As far as I know nobody maintains it anymore.
Looking at the repository history there have been no commits to it since
2005 and very few since 1999 so I'd say pretty unlikely that it's going to
get updated.
Thanks.

Re: Build with Harmony (WAS: Xerces-J compilation error)
Posted by Nathan Beyer <nd...@apache.org>.
Harmony doesn't have javadoc implemented, so that obviously doesn't work,
but I'm able to get the compiles to work. The output is different as the
Harmony compiler is ECJ. The most obvious issue at the moment is big failure
in generating the documentation ('build doc'). I'm not familiar with the
classes mentioned in the stack trace, so I'm looking for some pointers to
the projects they belong to. Here's a snippet of the log with the stack
trace I'm seeing. It looks like the
org.apache.stylebooks.printers.ImagePrinter is using the proprietary Sun
APIs. This shoud really be replaced with Image I/O APIs, but I'm not sure
what project this code belongs to. Also, if I can see the code, I can work
on a compatibility shim for Harmony.

It's just for setting up the invocation of Ant. It points to the copy of
Ant included with Xerces. A user only needs to set JAVA_HOME in order to
use the scripts.
The classpath for compilation is defined in build.xml and also managed by
the custom Javac task.

A better question would be - what's the intent of the classpath that's
assembled in this script? Is it to just get the additional libraries
available for Ant? It's not for properly setting up the build classpath,
correct? That's taken care of in the custom compiler task.

build.bat/sh is used when building the official releases. Ant gets invoked
directly for the Gump builds and when I'm working in Eclipse I usually
invoke it directly too.

Should work with Ant 1.6.5 and above though might work with earlier
versions. I upgraded the copy in the repository from 1.6.5 to 1.7.l
recently.

I recall 'classes.zip' being in earlier JDKs. 1.2 perhaps. If it no longer
exists in recent JDKs it will be ignored.
I've tested it with Sun JDK 6 before. It should still work.
