jaxb2-sources : Allow compilation under Java 6 #478

Closed glassfishrobot closed 13 years ago

glassfishrobot commented 16 years ago

Currently jaxb2-sources fails to compile under Java 6, failing in the 'txwc' task with this error:

build.xml:179: java.lang.NullPointerException

Building using Java 5 works fine, but obviously it would be cool to have JAXB compile under the current release of the Java platform.

Perhaps more importantly the current requirement for Java 5 should be documented as it's causing user's confusion - see http://forums.java.net/jive/message.jspa?messageID=256237#256237

Instructions at https://jaxb2-sources.dev.java.net/ and in 'HOWTO-build.txt' & 'src-build.readme' should be updated.

best regards, Roberto

robertotyley said: Unfortunately the build.properties fix doesn't work for me - this is with JAXB CVS HEAD (i.e JAXB 2.1.6ish), Java 6, Apache Ant v1.7.0 on Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon.

The patch is against a different version of the build.properties in CVS head, so I manually added 'ant.build.javac.target=1.5' to build.properties and src-build.properties, but the build still failed with the "build.xml:179: java.lang.NullPointerException" error.

Just checking leamas, did you do an 'ant clean' before testing the target=1.5 fix?
