I put
servlet-api-2.4.jar
jasper-compiler.jar
jasper-runtime.jar
I don t know what append

It looks like -v option has been removed from jasper compiler 5.5.
Using jasper compiler 4.1 worked for me just fine.

javah NullPointerException while using ANT in Eclipse Indigo

I'm using an ANT buildscript like so:
<project basedir="..">
<property name="src" location="src"/>
<property name="classes" location="classes" />
<property name="jnifiles" location="jnifiles" />
<target name="init">
<mkdir dir="${classes}" />
<mkdir dir="${jnifiles}" />
</target>
<target name="compile"
description="compile the source " >
<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${classes}" includeantruntime="false" />
</target>
<target name="generate-jni">
<javah destdir="${jnifiles}" >
<class name="com.example.ExecJNI" />
</javah>
</target>
<target name="clean"
description="clean up" >
<delete dir="${classes}"/>
<delete dir="${jnifiles}"/>
</target>
It goes through clean, init and compile just fine, but at generate-jni I get the following error:
generate-jni:
[javah] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

[javah] at com.sun.tools.javah.JavahTask.run(JavahTask.java:335)
[javah] at com.sun.tools.javah.Main.main(Main.java:46)
Anyone have a clue what I'm doing wrong?
Did you check the default version of installed JREs?
I had the same problem too and I checked installed JREs in Eclipse preferences.
The default version is jre7 though I indeed installed jdk1.7.
After changing the default version to jdk1.7, the problem is solved.
Hope this information helps you.

Configuring a build file for a .NET solution to be used by Jenkins

Javadoc errors when building Ant project

I am trying to write a build.xml file for my project. When I run build.xml as an Ant project, I get the following error:

I have imported log4j in LogAlerter.Java. Here is my build.xml file:

Try adding a classpath ref to your javadoc task:
<javadoc packagenames="src"
sourcepath="${src.dir}"
destdir="${docs.dir}"
classpathref="build.classpath">
What the warning is telling you is that you've not provided the full classpath to the javadoc task. Try adding a similar classpath ref to that in your compile task and see where that leads.
Importing is fine but make sure it is available at run time for the JavaDoc tool. log4j.jar should be present in your build.classpath.
Make use of the classpathref inside the docs target like so:
<javadoc packagenames="src" sourcepath="${src.dir}" destdir="${docs.dir}" classpathref="build.classpath">

ANT script to compile all (css) LESS files in a dir and subdirs with RHINO

I want do compile all *.less scripts in a specific folder and it subdirs with less-rhino-1.1.3.js.
There is an example on github for doing this for a specific file, which works perfect. But I want to do the same for a complete folder. I tried a lot, here is my last try.
It doesn't work, propertyregex seems not to be standard ANT, I don't want to use such things. I am not even sure if this code would work.
<project name="test" default="main" basedir="../../">
<property name="css.dir" location="public/css"/>
<property name="tool.less" location="bin/less/less-rhino-1.1.3.js"/>
<property name="tool.rhino" location="bin/tools/rhino/js.jar"/>
<macrodef name="lessjs">
<attribute name="input" />
<attribute name="output" />
<sequential>
<java jar="${tool.rhino}" fork="true" output="#{output}">
<arg path="${tool.less}"/>
<arg path="#{input}"/>
</java>
<echo>Lessjs: generated #{output}</echo>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
<target name="main">
<echo>compiling less css</echo>
<fileset dir="${css.dir}" id="myfile">
<filename name="**/*.less" />
</fileset>
<property name="lessfilename" refid="myfile"/>
<propertyregex property="cssfilename"
input="${lessfile}"
regexp="^(.*)\.less$"
replace="^\1\.css$"
casesensitive="true" />
<lessjs input="lessfile" output="cssfilename"/>
</target>
</project>
You could use the <fileset> to include all the less files need to be compiled. Later, you could use<mapper> to mark the corresponding detination css file.
<project name="test" default="main" basedir="../../">
<property name="css.dir" location="public/css"/>
<property name="tool.less" location="bin/less/less-rhino-1.1.3.js"/>
<property name="tool.rhino" location="bin/tools/rhino/js.jar"/>
<target name="less" description="Convert LESS to CSS then concatenate and Minify any stylesheets">
<echo message="Converting LESS to CSS..."/>
<!-- Clear the former compiled css files -->
<delete includeemptydirs="true">
<fileset dir="${css.dir}" includes="*.css, **/*.css" defaultexcludes="false"/>
</delete>
<apply dir="${css.dir}" executable="java" parallel="false" failonerror="true">
<!-- Give the input bundle of less files-->
<fileset dir="${css.dir}">
<include name="*.less"/>
</fileset>
<arg value="-jar" />
<arg path="${tool.rhino}" />
<arg path="${tool.less}" />
<srcfile/>
<!-- Output the compiled css file with corresponding name -->
<mapper type="glob" from="*.less" to="${css.dir}/*.css"/>
<targetfile/>
</apply>
</target>
</project>
I was able to piece together a working solution with the help of a couple of SO answers:
ANT script to compile all (css) LESS files in a dir and subdirs with RHINO
How to correctly execute lessc-rhino-1.6.3.js from command line
I had to download LESS 1.7.5 from GitHub and modify the Ant target to look like this. The -f argument and LESS JavaScript was key:
<property name="css.dir" value="WebContent/css"/>
<property name="less.dir" value="less"/>
<property name="tool.rhino.jar" value="test-lib/rhino-1.7R4.jar"/>
<property name="tool.rhino.lessc" value="test-lib/lessc-rhino-1.7.5.js"/>
<property name="tool.rhino.less" value="test-lib/less-rhino-1.7.5.js"/>
<target name="compile-less" description="compile css using LESS">
<apply dir="${css.dir}" executable="java" parallel="false" failonerror="true">
<fileset dir="${less.dir}">
<include name="styles.less"/>
</fileset>
<arg value="-jar"/>
<arg path="${tool.rhino.jar}"/>
<arg value="-f"/>
<arg path="${tool.rhino.less}"/>
<arg path="${tool.rhino.lessc}"/>
<srcfile/>
<mapper type="glob" from="*.less" to="${css.dir}/*.css"/>
<targetfile/>
</apply>
</target>
If anyone else is coming to this question recently, as I did, they may find that the less-rhino-1.1.3.js file given in the other answers does not work with the latest version of Rhino (which for me, as of now, is 1.7R4 from MDN). But the 1.4.0 version does, which can be obtained from Github here. So the relevant snippet from my build.xml, using these later versions, is shown. Note that I'm only compiling a single .less file to a single .css file, so no iteration or mappers are used (but obviously you can get those from the other answers). Other tweaks I made were to provide the output file as the final arg to less instead of capturing output from the Ant forked process, and to remove the dependency on ant-contrib stuff (not needed for the simple one-file case).
<property name="tool.rhino" value="build/lesscss/rhino1_7R4/js.jar" />
<property name="tool.less" value="build/lesscss/less-rhino-1.4.0.js" />
<property name="single-input-lesscss-file" value="/path/to/my/style.less" />
<property name="single-output-css-file" value="/output/my/style.css" />
<target name="compileLessCss" description="Compile the single less file to css">
<sequential>
<java jar="${tool.rhino}" fork="true">
<arg path="${tool.less}" />
<arg path="${single-input-lesscss-file}" />
<arg path="${single-output-css-file}" />
</java>
</sequential>
</target>
If maven is an option for you, you could try wro4j-maven-plugin or wro4j-runner (which is a command line utility).
Using one of these, all you have do is to create an resource model descriptor (wro.xml):
<groups xmlns="http://www.isdc.ro/wro">
<group name="g1">
<css>/path/to/*.less</css>
</group>
</groups>
The rest will be handled by the wro4j library. No need to carry about how rhino works or other details.
Disclaimer: I'm working on wro4j project
I had the same issue. I developed a solution using ant-contrib. It expects all of your .less files to be in one flat directory and to be moved to another flat directory. It will change the file extension to .css in the process.

I was unable to get this to run using a JDK 1.6 since the javascript stuff has been incorporated to the JDK. The JDK does have a jrunscript executable in the distribution but when I try to run the less-rhino.js file it fails to recognize any readFile() function. Has anyone looked into that. Otherwise I may be giving the lesscss-engine a shot and enhancing it to understand filesets.

ant build script issue

I have 2 ant build scripts named "build" and "tarne"
Build:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<project name="build" default="zip">
<property name="project.name" value="projectName"/>
<property name="version" value="default_version_value"/>
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties">
<classpath>
<pathelement location="lib/build/ant-contrib.jar"/>
</classpath>
</taskdef>
<var name="version2" value="default_version_value"/>
<property name="tmp" value="tmp"/>
<property name="build.dir" location="${tmp}/component/${project.name}"/>
<property name="java.classes" location="${tmp}/component/${project.name}/classes"/>
<property name="weblayout.dir" location="${tmp}/weblayout/resources/${project.name}"/>
<path id="compile.classpath">
<fileset dir="lib" includes="**/*.jar" />
<fileset dir="lib/build" includes="*.zip" />
</path>
<target name="clean">
<delete dir="${tmp}" />
</target>
<target name="init" depends="clean">
<mkdir dir="${java.classes}" />
</target>
<target name="compile" depends="init">
<javac srcdir="src" source="1.5" target="1.5" encoding="utf-8" includes="**/*.java" destdir="${java.classes}" classpathref="compile.classpath" />
</target>
<target name="copy-resources" depends="compile">
//Lots of copying here
</target>
<target name="read.version" description="Parses the hda file for your version number">
<property file="${project.name}.hda" prefix="hda"/>
<propertyregex property="version" input="${hda.version}" regexp="\." replace="-" global="true" override="true"/>
<var name="version2" value="${version}"/>
<echo>${version}</echo>
<echo>${version2}</echo>
</target>
<target name="zip" depends="copy-resources, read.version" description="Package component">
<zip destfile="${project.name}-${version}.zip" basedir="${tmp}" />
<delete dir="${tmp}" />
</target>
</project>
Tarne:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<project default="tarne">
<include file="build.xml"/>
<property name="project.name" value="build.project.name"/>
<target name="tarne">
<antcall target="build.read.version" inheritRefs="true"></antcall>
<property name="version" value="build.version"/>
<property name="version2" value="build.version2"/>
<echo>${version}</echo>
<echo>${version2}</echo>
</target>
</project>
And the output I get when I run tarne.xml is:
Buildfile: tarne.xml
tarne:
build.read.version:
[echo] v1-0-1
[echo] v1-0-1
[echo] default_version_value
[echo] default_version_value
Where the first 2 lines (v1-0-1) are from inside the read.version target of build.xml and the next 2 lines are from tarne.xml. The general idea is that I should be able to access the version number in my tarne.xml build script.
Any ideas on what's going wrong?
Antcall does not support what you intend to do:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/antcall.html :
The called target(s) are run in a new project; be aware that this means properties, references, etc. set by called targets will not persist back to the calling project.
you could try:
<target name="tarne" depends="build.read.version">
</target>
which would keep the new values.
Try
<property name="version" value="${build.version}"/>
<property name="version2" value="${build.version2}"/>
