Building Harmony on Ubuntu 7.10
Hi all,
Thanks to the valuable discussions on this list I was able to successfully
build Harmony on Ubuntu 7.10 in less than a day. Below are some of my
experiences.
1. Requirement of ant-optional
2. Requirement of setting ANT_OPTS even on Ubuntu
3. Xerces distribution at given download target is faulty
4. Need to separately checkout log4cxx
5. Need to install package libxtst-dev
Also, some methods discussed on the list weren't required (ex:- soft links
for libXtst). In addition to that I noticed a number of warnings when
building C/C++ source.
Thanks,
Senaka

These are the same thing I went through when building harmony. GOod to see
that a configuration guide was created.

One alternative to the copying of the ecj JAR to Ant's main library
folder is to put it in "~/.ant/lib". The ant script will load those
libraries as well. This helps for cases where you can't write to the
main Ant lib folder or you just want to keep things isolated.

Hi all,
http://wiki.apache.org/harmony/DevConfiguration_Ubuntu7-10
contains a guideline on installing Harmony on Ubuntu 7.10.
1. Xerces distribution at given download target is faulty
2. Need to separately checkout log4cxx
Are required to be corrected from the Harmony side I believe, as this
doesn't seem to be some OS specific requirement.

Senaka

Good job Senaka.

Add a link to the wiki from [1] -- it's better that everyone can easily

reproduced, thanks!
AFAIR, to run unit tests you will also need to put junit.jar into ant
lib directory, but I am not sure which version..
Argh, Getting Started guide is even less usable than I thought. See
how it is organized:
2. Checking out the Federated Build Tree
svn co ...
After you populate the source trees in the _next_step_,
working_classlib will be the checkout of the class library SVN
tree
HA-HA! the next step is "3. Starting the Federated Build" which suggests
"ant -Dauto.fetch=true" that fails without means to surprise us.
I am going to add "ant populate-src" just before the "ant
-Dauto.fetch=true" to solve this under-documentation..

Yes, if not it lead to a build break. However, I had several other issues
that caused build breaks too, at the point at which I added this package. I
suspected that this is required because the error message changed after this
package was added.
I discovered that this package is required from [1].

Egor, thanks for pointing to the rootcause.
Fixed the log4cxx issue at r643801. Strange, somehow antcall ignores
inheritAll=false so I added marker prefix to avoid collision with
svn.* properties.

Have you tried overriding ANT_HOME with a Ant 1.6.5 version? Check
that it's not a 1.7 issue.

this is a nasty bug!
I can fight it with:
Index: working_vm/make/extra/log4cxx.xml
===================================================================
--- working_vm/make/extra/log4cxx.xml (revision 642695)
+++ working_vm/make/extra/log4cxx.xml (working copy)

</ant>

But this is a dirty workaround. I have no idea why propertyset in
fetch-svn target does not work. Waiting for a build guru (the build guru? :)
