Build problem with HEAD (as of rev 13853) : Cured

[gyro_gearless]

Hi folks,

i had quite some problems building Alfresco from HEAD the last few days, always caught an build failure when the JIBVX bindings where compiled:

BUILD FAILED

I just cured this by augmenting the classpath for JiBX with "core" - here is the tweaked project.xml, around line 190:

   <target name="compile-repository-jibx" 
           depends="init">
      <!– load the JIBX task definition –>
      <taskdef name="bind" 
               classname="org.jibx.binding.ant.CompileTask"
               classpath="${dir.project.3rdparty.lib}/jibx/jibx-bind.jar;${dir.project.3rdparty.lib}/jibx/jibx-run.jar;${dir.project.3rdparty.lib}/bcel.jar;${dir.project.3rdparty.lib}/xpp3-1.1.3_8.jar" />
      <bind verbose="false" 
            load="true" 
            binding="${file.jibx.binding.m2}">
         <classpathset dir="${dir.project.repository.classes}"/>
         <classpathset dir="${dir.project.core.classes}"/>
      </bind>
      <bind verbose="false" 
            load="true" 
            binding="${file.jibx.binding.systeminfo}">
         <classpathset dir="${dir.project.repository.classes}"/>
         <classpathset dir="${dir.project.core.classes}"/>
     </bind>
   </target>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I suppose it would be good idea to integrate this change into HEAD  :roll:

Cheers

We're in the middle of merging from the V3.1 branch, so there are bound to be transitional problems - in fact the unit tests haven't all passed since we began (which means nightly builds won't get updated either). I expect HEAD to settle down towards the middle/end of next week.

Thanks,
Mike
