Build failure on macOS - Githubissues

llamafilm commented 3 years ago

The build instructions for ttpe say to use ant build but this gives an error

Buildfile: build.xml does not exist!

I figured out the project uses maven instead, so I ran mvn clean install and got an error about Too many open files in system. My Mac running Big Sur has maxfiles at 10000 by default, so I fixed it with

sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 20000

Then the build succeeds, but I cannot run it:

 % java -jar ttt-ttpe/target/ttt-ttpe-7.1-SNAPSHOT.jar 
no main manifest attribute, in ttt-ttpe/target/ttt-ttpe-7.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

So I tried extracting the JAR and running it this way.

% java com.skynav.ttpe.app.Version
7.1-SNAPSHOT
% java com.skynav.ttpe.app.Presenter
Error: Could not find or load main class com.skynav.ttpe.app.Presenter

I don't know Java code at all, but I think maybe it can't find the TimedTextTransformer class because I don't see this in the JAR.

The versions I'm using:

% java -version
java version "1.8.0_261"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_261-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.261-b12, mixed mode)

I found that running ttt-ttpe-all gets a little further on the dependency issue. Then it throws an exception:

I managed to make it work by downloading commons-logging-1.2.jar from here and copying it to the jars folder. I'm sure there must be a better way to build this app. It would be great to document it for Java novices like myself.

% mvn -DskipTests clean package
% find . -name "*.jar" -exec cp {} jars \;
% java -cp "jars/*" com.skynav.ttpe.app.Presenter --font ttt-ttpe/src/test/fonts/NotoSans.xml ~/Downloads/Netflix_sub.xml

Thanks, I will update the documentation for TTPE. The problem you are facing is that you failed to follow the instructions at https://github.com/skynav/ttt before attempting to build the subordinate ttt-ttpe project. [The same applies to the ttt-ttv project.] N.B. that this software is intended to be built and used by someone with intermediate to advanced knowledge of Java and Maven.
