exclude a loaded class from the classpath
hello everyone,
i'm facing to a BIG problem at my office...
i work for a company with strange practices. i have to make a build file
for an old project...
the problem is:
(jar names are not the real one)
1- somebody redefines classes from A.jar in the project.
2- Foo.java extends a class redefined from A.jar: the class redefines is
in the project
3- so i didn't use A.jar in my classpath to avoid conflicts
4- But B.jar (that i need absolutely) is compiled with A.jar inside so
when i lauch the build file, i've got a problem because it loads the
class from A.jar to compile Foo.java and not the class defined in the
project :-(
when we build it with JBuilder2006 (yes, some entreprises olds
JBuilder!) it works.
So my question is:
is it possible to use preferred class loaded in the javac task?? i would
like to exclude from the classpath a class loaded from A.jar via B.jar :
possible ???
regards
supareno

i could not !! i don't have the choice: i should use the B.jar (that
contains the A.jar)
and i could not redesign the old project...
i think that i will add the missing method (because the difference
between redesigned class in the project
and the class in A.jar is a method commented in the redesigned class!)
because i can't influence on the javac
task !

It sounds like they have a need for a branch from a certain release.
Find out when that is.
If they don't have already have a branch, they seem to need one.
Get the old version of all the jars from the repository, with that
release date, put it in the new branch.
Add in changes to that branch.
