Windows 98?
Folks, has anyone successfully built ant under Win98? I downloaded the
source and successfully built under Linux, but I'm having a terrible time
with Win98 and there is no binary distribution on the site for download :(
I'm likely going to just grab the Jar file from my linux build, but I was
wondering if anyone's been successful with Win98 yet

srcdir must point on 'src', not on src/com/...

Yep, In fact, if I run
javac -sourcepath src -d build\classes *.java
javac will build the com\thinker\event structure - which is why I think it
has something to do with ant's javac taskdef.

Have you got package statements in your .java files? (Soory, only thing I
could think of)
RE: Windows 98? (and now a newbie question..... :)
Posted by Rick Yazwinski <ri...@solect.com>.
There were many problems with method prototypes... sorry, but I can't
reproduce it now as I found the binary distribution and blew away my old src
one :(
Now for an ant-newbie question:
Should the javac task build out a similar class file directory structure to
the source structure. The situation that I'm encountering (to my surprise)
is that I have a source structure like:
src/com/thinker/event/*.java
build/classes
When I run the javac task as:
<javac srcdir="${src.dir}"
destdir="${build.classes}"
classpath="${classpath}"
debug="on"
deprecation="on"
optimize="on" >
</javac>
where src.dir is "src" and build.classes="build/classes" I loose the
com/thinker/event directory structure and all the class files are dumped
into build/classes - which causes my subsequent jar task to fail as it's
looking for class files from com/thinker/event :(
<jar jarfile="${lib.dir}/${name}.jar"
basedir="${build.classes}"
includes="com/**"
Any thoughts?

That is true, indeed. Nevertheless, it would be good to be able to build ant
on all platforms. There may be Win98 users who do not have a
Linux/NT/Solaris/whatever system to build ant. Perhaps Rick can tell us the
sorts of problems he is encountering.

Not sure why you'd want to build it...
I just grabbed the so-called binaries,
since they are just jar files, and I've
used them successfully out of the box
on Windows 2000, Windows NT, and Solaris
2.5.1 and Solaris 2.6.
That is one of the beauties of java, is it not?
If you built it on linux, use it on '98...

I had no problems that i didn't have on NT.
Basically if my environment was set up correctly it builds with out any
problems.
