Does Anybody Have Some Unfinished Work for 1.8.0?

2009-12-07T07:49:15Z

Hi all,

is anybody working on something that should go into 1.8.0 or could we
start thinking about doing that release thingy more or less right now?

I think the problem that I have is that the @Media property isn't always set. In which case it fails when it tries to look at a node with no Media property.

Can anyone think of a workaround? :-/

Thanks!

questionXML..@Media)
2. Store each of these to download them
3. Replace the values in the XML with local path equivalents, e.g.

Okay... So back to my original request (thanks for all the help so far! :))

Here's my code so far:

------------
<target name="downloadQuestionImages">
<xmltask source="${local.path}GetAllQuestions.xml">
<call path="//@Media" target="getMedia">

</call>
</xmltask>
</target>

<target name="getMedia">
<echo message="${mediaURL}" />
</target>
-------------

This doesn't seem to iterate through though... I get:

getMedia:
[echo] /brain_games_main/Image.ashx?ID=647
[xmltask] Parent project doesn't contain any reference 'xmltask.buffers'

And just keeps looping.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Somehow, I feared that this was the answer :p

Well, I may as well get up to it since the "kbuild way" is gaining
steam within the C/C++ community, so why not Java ;)

Okay,

So I've sorted it, but it was a weird one!

One of the questions was badly formatted, and looked like this:

<Question ID="531" Subject="L" Category="Punc" Presentation="PT01" Engine="MC01" Body="test" Instruction="Select the correct answer" Level="1">
<TipID/>
<Answers>
<Answer ID="1457" Valid="false" Position="1" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=112">[Media}</Answer>
<Answer ID="1458" Valid="true" Position="2" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=113">[Media}</Answer>
<Answer ID="1459" Valid="false" Position="3" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=114">[Media}</Answer>
<Answer ID="1460" Valid="false" Position="4" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=115">[Media}</Answer>
</Answers>
</Question>

Notice the "[Media}"... Now the weird thing is that this caused an error on a large file, but not on a smaller one. I can correct the problem from my end, but I thought you might like to know! Is a "}" symbol not allowed in UTF-encoded XML files? It seems to work fine in a browser and like I said, also works fine in smaller files...

weird!

Re: RegExp help needed!

Hi,

uhhm, in this case maybe the error you are encountering is a disguised
Out of Memory, or a bug with the XML parser.

you might want to try with different JDKs. I do not know whether the
xercesImpl.jar which ships with ant is actually used to parse XML files
in custom tasks or whether it would be some equivalent package from your
JDK. I wonder whether ant would run without the xercesImpl.jar. I guess
it is not needed with the recent JDKs.

Antoine

Hi there,

Just so you know, I created a file which was bigger than my original file as a test, and that worked fine... So I'm a bit confused as to how this XML file will not work when it is supposedly well formatted...

Re: Recording tasks output while silencing stdout

Hello Francis,

you might want to write your own logger, and start ant specifying your
logger on the command line.

This way, you can handle output the way you want.

Hi Antopine,

Yes the XML file loads fine in a browser. I am even declaring UTF-8 at the top of the file. And when I split the file down the middle and test both halves (keeping the header of course) it works fine too.

Hello,

the error below would not be an ant of xmltask error. The message

Invalid byte 3 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence

means that your XML file is not matching the UTF-8 convention. Does
your XML file specify UTF-8 in the XML declaration ?

Can you read your XML file using another tool than ant, for instance a
web browser, or the XML editor of Eclipse or another Java based
development environment ?

Regards,

Antopine

Thanks for the info. If you are right, this could still be a problem because
the XML is being formed on a server and I don't really have control over
that part of it!

I just tried splitting the file into two to test that theory... Both halves
seem to work fine, but together they throw that error.

I also ran the XML file in Firefox to see what it thinks of the file, and it
doesn't throw any encoding errors.

Re: FTP works in 1.6.5, fails in 1.7.1

Hello Ken,

would you mind sending a stack trace ? If you run your build with ant
-verbose, the output will finish with the stack trace.
Maybe this is a new, unknown bug, which should be entered in bugzilla.
Regards,

Antoine

That looks to me like your XML is not properly encoded. I suspect that
if you use a command-line tool like xmlstarlet it'll confoirm that by
giving you a very similar error. The below isn't size-related.

FTP works in 1.6.5, fails in 1.7.1

2009-12-07T05:15:36Z

I have the following code snippet:

<ftp server="${oc4j.host.name}"
remotedir="trips/schemas/${target.schemas.path}${hyphen.app.name.suffix}"
chmod="0777"
userid="${ftp.userid}"
password="${ftp.password}">
<fileset dir="${tripsrootdir}Java/Projects/trips-types">
<include name="**/*.xml"/>
<include name="**/*.xsd"/>
</fileset>
</ftp>

With Ant 1.6.5, this works fine, but with Ant 1.7.1 it appears to successfully copy one file, and then falls over with a null pointer exception.

Have I missed something here?

RE: RegExp help needed!

2009-12-07T04:39:33Z

Hi Gilbert,

Thanks very much for taking the time to help me out. Unfortunately I've not used Xpath before and don't really have time to learn :( but if I give you an example of my XML, could you perhaps point me in the right direction? Here is an example:

------
<Question ID="531" Subject="L" Category="Punc" Presentation="PT01" Engine="MC01" Body="test" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=12">
<TipID/>
<Answers>
<Answer ID="1457" Valid="false" Position="1" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=112">txt</Answer>
<Answer ID="1458" Valid="true" Position="2" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=113">txt</Answer>
<Answer ID="1459" Valid="false" Position="3" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=114">txt</Answer>
<Answer ID="1460" Valid="false" Position="4" Media="/bgmain/Image.ashx?ID=115">txt</Answer>
</Answers>
</Question>
-----

So from this, I need to:
1. Find any Media attribute, nested or otherwise (e.g. in E4X, questionXML..@Media)
2. Store each of these to download them
3. Replace the values in the XML with local path equivalents, e.g. "images/image_@{imageID}.jpg"
4. Go through stored list, download the images and put them in the right place (I know how to do that bit with copy url)

Many thanks!

Hi all,

I'm fumbling my way around Ant and finding the help on the web really
confusing. I am using Ant simply as a macro copy/download/find-replace
utility and am an ActionScript programmer, not a Java one.

Anyway... There's one bit I'm stuck on and really need your help please!

I have used Ant to download an XML file and store it locally. I now need a
way of going through the XML, finding all the image URL attributes,
downloading those images and replacing all the URLs in the XML to local
relative paths. So far, all I have is:

<loadfile property="questions" srcFile="${local.path}GetAllQuestions.xml"
/>
<propertyregex input="${questions}" property="questions.output"
regexp="Media="(.*?)"" select="\1" global="true" />
<echo message="${questions.output}" />

*/

regexp for xml or html is not recommended, better use xmltask and the power of xpath =

xmltask
http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/

xpath
http://www.w3schools.com/Xpath/
http://www.zvon.org/xxl/XPathTutorial/General/examples.html

so you would go like that =

<xmltask source="">
<call path="//module/*[liefertyp/text()='build']" target="yourdownloadtarget">
<param name..." path="..."/>
...
</call>
</xmltask>

you may post a snippet of your xml file to get the right xpath expression.

This only traces the first one in the XML, but obviously I want to find all of the instances, add them to some kind of array and then loop through that array and load them all. I've done a for list before so that bit is okay, but the question is how do I get Ant to iterate through and find all individual instances of that regexp?

Re: Build failure propogation

2009-12-07T03:56:47Z

Initially we were throwing new BuildException() as this did not work, we now have the code like this

project.fireBuildFinished(error)

This approach is resulting build fail error for the current ant programmatic ant execution but the same failure is not getting propagated to the build file which uses <ant> to invoke next one..

Any other suggestions from others pl.. I think we need some help on error prorogation mechanism/design clues when mix of xml and custom tasks are used.

Well, from what I know, if you want to propagate a failure, you should
throw BuildException. If you do that and it doesn't work, I cannot
help any further I'm afraid :/
