Help! - Eclipse! - Uncle!
OK, can someone tell me how they have their eclipse project set up for
log4j? I was able to:
- Create a respository location for the apache cvs
- Create a java project and synchronize it with jakarta-log4j in the cvs
- Update all of the source into the project workspace
Now I want to get the build.xml to work, but it keeps complaining that the
JAVA_HOME variable does not have the right value. The javac command in ant
is failing.
And how in the heck do I get eclipse to not do its automatic build and just
to the ant build instead?
Uncle!
thanks,
-Mark

Yep, adding tools.jar in the ANT runtime classpath seems to work well.

The above mentions the problem but does not solve it completely.

I am still using Eclipse 3 M3. It seems that in M4 they solved the biggest
"irritation" I had with Eclipse, that is the slowness of CVS updates,
commits etc. For more details:

That is one thing I agree on. Why we can't replace the Java builder
with an ant builder.

I don't understand why the eclipse team doesn't make this easier. I
mean, I already wrote an ANT script to handle all of the details of the
compilation, why would I want to (should I have to) duplicate that
effort within the eclipse configuration? If I were designing my dream
IDE, it would be capable of importing ANT scripts for build
configuration and would generate ANT scripts from GUI-configured build
settings.

In my configuration, only a few (5) packages showed errors (with empty
classpath).
Make sure your source path is set to 'src/java', not to 'src' only (which is
Eclipses default 'guess'). Otherwise Eclipse gets confused about
the package names.

It took me 10 min. to download all required jars. This is probably
much less effort than trying to force Eclipse to work in another
style, especially as you need to do this only once.

Not recommended, because you lose all the nice Java features,
especially the refactoring capabilities.

If you want to go this way, you can disable most of the error annotations.
All relevant options are on the 'Window->Preferences, Java->Editor,
Annotations'
page.
Of course, you can also just close the 'Problems' window if you don't like
it.
Then the errors are shown 'only' in the package tree and in the left-hand
ruler of the editor.

I second this.

Three ways around this:
* Modify your project definition to include all the libraries
required.. Then eclipse will compile it all, with no errors... :)
* Don't include the java source tree as a source path, then it won't
bother compiling it. You will then need to use the Find Resource method
to find java files, because then the Open Type dialog won't have any
Java source files to search from
* [I use this] Ignore the errors in Eclipse. You can still find the
classes using Open Type, but you still get the errors. You can modify
the filter for the Problems view to only show problems from a particular
Working Set, so you could define a working set which contains all your
interested packages so you're effectively ignoring the ones you are not
worried about. Then use ANt to compile it all, and ensure your Project
definition uses the same "Output path" that Ant uses. That way Ant
compiles the code, and Eclipse can use the generated class files to
recognize those classes.
BTW, if you're not running Eclipse 3.0 M4, I highly recommend going to
it. We've been developing our company's product with the 3.0 M3
release, and that was stable enough for our purposes, and M4 released
last week as some more neat features. The Call Hierarchy view is worth
it's weight in gold in the 3.0 version.

Adding exclusion filters for contrib/ and log4jMini/ should not have been
necessary. Do you have 'log4j-1.3' (i.e that name of your project) under
Project properties -> Java Build Path? If so, that is probably the reason
why you had to add exclusion filters.

Sounds good.

Thank you to everyone for their advice and help. I recreated my project
with the Ceki's info, but I also:
1) Added exclusion filters for contrib/ and log4jMini/.
2) Added a bunch of external jars, basically the same ones you would list in
the build.properties plus junit.
Now I only get 3 compile errors related to the avalon logger. I guess I
need the avalon jar to resolve those.
one little victory,

Mark,
I managed to set up eclipse so that I can work with eclipse to compile the
code and whenever I chose to so, go to ant to build/compile stuff. In other
words, both eclipse and ant compile the same source files and output them
to the same directories.
Here is how I have done it:
I have set up a project called 'log4j-1.3'. Got the files from CVS.
In project properties, select 'Java Build Path'.
Select the 'Source' tab.
I have the following source folders under 'source folders on build path'
log4j-1.3/examples
output folder" default, i.e log4j-1.3/dist/classes
log4j-1.3/src/java
output folder: default, i.e log4j-1.3/dist/classes
log4j-1.3/src/tests/java
output folder: log4j-1.3/tests/classes
Do not forget to have the 'allow output folders for source folders' checked
I hope this helps.

Re: Help! - Eclipse! - Uncle!
Posted by Mark Womack <mw...@apache.org>.
Tim and Michael, thanks for the info and links. My build.xml is now
functioning.
One more question...the package explorer is showing me all of the packages
in the project, but most of them have compile errors associated with the
Eclipse attempt to build the project (which I still don't want to use). Is
there any way to get it to not display all the error garbage?
<mini-rant>
This is the thing I dislike most about IDE's. If you work and think in the
same way as the folks that designed the IDE, everything is great. But, as
soon as you try to step a little bit off the beaten down path, good luck.
</mini-rant>
Of course, some of this is just the learning curve I am trying to climb at
the same time I am trying to get useful work done.
thanks,
-Mark

Oops. That should be "Window | Preferences | Ant | Runtime | Classpath"

Including the tools.jar in the Ant runtime classpath is the standard
response on the relevant Eclipse email lists.
To get to the classpath: Window | Preferences | Ant | Classpath

See http://eclipsewiki.swiki.net/118
I've opted for including tools.jar in the ANT runtime
classpath rather than the using the internal compiler,
otherwise rmic doesn't work for compiling the
examples.

I faced the same problem. The way I solved it was to launch eclipse in a
shell *after* configuring the JAVA_HOME variable.

Dunno the answer to that one. I'd appreciate an answer as well.
