Installing ant on AIX 5.2

[Arnault BELLINA <ka...@yahoo.fr>]

Hi all ! 
  
  I'm trying to install Apache ant 1.6.5 on AIX 5.2. I unpacked  the  tar file and I tried as mentionned in the Building ant Manual to build  ant from sources.
  
  However when i build ant with the script build.sh I had a problem with the underscript bootstrap.sh : 
  
  I get this error : 
  
  ./build.sh -Ddir.dist=ant dist
  
  ... Bootstrapping Ant Distribution
  ... Compiling Ant Classes
  ./bootstrap.sh[130]: /usr/java14/sh/javac: arg list too long
  ... Failed compiling Ant classes !
  Bootstrap FAILED
  
  
  I find that the problem come from the code : 
  
  "${JAVAC}" $BOOTJAVAC_OPTS -d ${CLASSDIR} ${TOOLS}/bzip2/*.java ${TOOLS}/tar/*.java ${TOOLS}/zip/*.java \
      ${TOOLS}/ant/util/regexp/RegexpMatcher.java \
      ${TOOLS}/ant/util/regexp/RegexpMatcherFactory.java \
      ${TOOLS}/ant/types/*.java \
      ${TOOLS}/ant/taskdefs/compilers/*.java \
      ${TOOLS}/ant/taskdefs/condition/*.java \
      ${TOOLS}/ant/*.java ${TOOLS}/ant/taskdefs/*.java
  ret=$?
  if [ $ret != 0 ]; then
    echo ... Failed compiling Ant classes !
    exit $ret
  fi
  
  I try to separate the instruction in two part but I get a new error when the build.sh script use the build.xml file.
  
  Is there any solution to correct the JAVAC compilation to make it works  ? Is there anybody who had this error. Or does it exist some binary of  ant  that works  on AIX 5.2
  
  Thanks a lot
  
  Arnault
