Invalid implementation Error
Hi,
Thanks in advance for any help / advice.
I am running opensuse 11.4.
I am trying to use ant, but get:
*Invalid implementation version between Ant core and Ant optional tasks.
> core : 1.7.1
> optional: null*
>
I downloaded:
ant_optional_1_4_1.jar
and put it in /use/share/ant/lib
The error msg seems fairly clear, but i dont know how to fix it.
ant -version:

HI,
thanks for your help. i understand what you're saying about it being a
standalone system. i guess its a mixture of "well, this SHOULD work... its
a new system", and the fact that i've had problems before, when ignoring the
Yast package manager (albeit for a webserver, not just a build tool... but
still).
So, what you're saying is, that a new, direct, download of ant, will have
this jar and therefore not complain about missing classes.
i think we've established that its not an obvious configuration issue i've
missed.
many thanks. i'll investigate and contact opensuse if it is the case that
ant doesnt have all dependencies in the initial pkg download.
Regards, Sam

I don't see that danger at all given that Ant is pure Java software,
without any dependencies on system libraries such as libc and friends.
But it's your system, of course. :-)
I'd then verify the error is from a pristine OpenSuse package and
then report the error to OpenSuse.
Good luck,
Michael

Hi,
Michael, Glenn, thank you for your help.
Michael , i think with opensuse its a bad idea to ignore the repository /
software management way of downloading and installing software. the system
can get in a real mess. its far better to let it put the software where it
wants to.
Glenn, this is a brand new install of opensuse 11.4, and i installed ant via
the package manager, so yes, it does come listed as repository.
I downloaded ant_optional_1_4_1.jar separately, as i got the "depend.Depend"
class not found, so i assume that it did NOT come downloaded with the
opensuse version of ant?
Any ideas on how to fix this (surely new opensuse install and new ant
download, should have everything i need?)
Many thanks for your help.
Regards, Sam

I wondered if there was a mismatch in the versions of ant components that
were being installed. Core is 1.7.1 and optional is 1.4.1?
Does opensuse package ant for the distribution? Perhaps that should be
re-installed. Or it might be better to manually install the latest version
of ant, as Michael suggests.

Just download Ant (and why not the latest, 1.8.2?) from ant.apache.org
and unpack it under /opt/ant or /usr/local/ant, whichever you prefer.
And don't bother with those errors, which may or may not result from bad
packaging, or who knows what.
