[kaffe] trying to build ant with kaffe [Re: using ant to build kaffe - ant needs non-free java!]

[Grzegorz Prokopski]

Hi!

I think I am finished with it for now.
No - it didn't work finally.

After I added to build.xml single line:
<property name="build.compiler" value="jikes"/>
I managed to get it further.

However after what I saw - no swing - no go.

It seem however, that this is the "optional" stuff, that could be
cut off the ant package, unfortunatelly some probably depend on that
"optional" stuff and that would no longer be "that" ant package.

Will have to think it over once again.
Don't know - maybe "freeant" package without some features - would
make a sense? None of my java packages that use ant to compile - use
any graphical ant interface.

Thank you for your help.

PS: I think there are other libs, that could be moved from contrib to
main thanks to kaffe 1.0.7. I'll dig into that topic more once 1.0.7
is in debian archive (my current quick&dirty package causes problems
I won't be describing here, but it's a hedache to use it)

PSS: What's the time you think we will have free implementation of
swing? If that's a few months - new "freed" branches of packages
don't make much sense. But if that's more than 1 year issue - that
could be considered I think (we could have more java in main for
sarge).

And here's the end of build log FYI:
