[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-814) javacc on Win32 (cygwin) creates wrong line endings - fix them with 'ant replace'

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-814?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12477136 ] 

Steven Parkes commented on LUCENE-814:
--------------------------------------

I've attached a patch that has the fixcrlf tasks (I wanted to check them under cygwin, to see if they work with mixed crlf/lf files, not just all crlf or all lf.)  This seems to give the correct results on both windows/cygwin and linux.

To Chris's comment: even if you do everything in cygwin, you'll get mixed output files because cygwin doesn't have any impact on java. Cygwin doesn't include java in anyway: you use the normal windows binaries. cygwin bash can call java, javac, ant, etc., but the windows java binaries still don't know anything about cygwin's crlf/lf mapping stuff.

And just to make things more confusing, it is possible to install cygwin in "dos mode' where it (supposedly) uses crlf rather lf. I have no experience with this. I did go so far as to try to install it this way to test but failed miserably: the two installations fought with each other, so I gave up. I  haven't heard of anyone running cygwin in crlf mode anyway.

> "ant javacc" in Windows/Cygwin generates files with wrong line endings (\r  or \r\n instead of *Nix's \n). 
> I managed to get rid of those using    perl -p -e 's/(\r\n|\n|\r)/\n/g'
> Some useful info on line ending issues is in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline
> After wasting some time to get rid of those, I modified javacc-QueryParser build.xml task to take care of that.
> So now QueryParser files created with "ant javacc" are fixed (if required) to have \n as line ends.
> Should probably do that also for the other javacc targets: javacc-HTMLParser and javacc-StandardAnalyzer(?)
