ANT build problem

[alex.t...@gmail.com]

I have following error trying to to build GWT:

[java] java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: chmod u+x
C:\GWT-DEV\trunk\build\out\samples\dynatable\scripts\linux\DynaTable-shell

Here is ANT output log:

Yeah, I didn't realize when I put them together that Ant's <chmod> actually invokes the underlying OS chmod, which doesn't work so well for most Windows boxes.  I didn't notice because I have a bunch of unix utils installed.

Any hope for fix?

The immediate fix would be to install SFU (Microsoft Services for
Unix) or Cygwin.

My plan right now to only build out the full staging directory for the platform you're actually running on.  We don't need the staging directories to build the full distros, just to run unit tests.  This would get around the chmod problem since a chmod on Windows isn't useful.

Hi guys,

If you can't build on Windows do to the chmod issue, please go to your trunk directory and execute:
svn merge http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@178 http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/changes/trunk/scottb/chmod-fix-r178

This should merge in my fix.  Please verify that you can build and that what you build works.

Thanks,
Scott

Thanks for trying this out.

Blimey.  This isn't the build system-- this is actually ApplicationCreator itself.  It's internally trying to chmod in order to set the correct perms on the generated Linux scripts.  I've added a fix for this to the same change list.

If you revert your tree and then merge again, it should pick up a chage to ApplicationCreator.java which should fix this.  Lemme know if that works.

Thanks,
Scott

Thank you, Scott! It works great.

Is the HEAD suppose to building under Windows now?

I've checked out revision 187, and it also fails on a chmod for me.

[java] java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: chmod u+x

C:\projects\googlecode
\gwt\trunk\build\out\samples\dynatable\scripts\mac\DynaTable-shell
error=2

-Ted.

[Scott Blum]

No, that change hasn't been committed to the trunk.  If you need to build now, merge in the change branch as described earlier in the thread.  You might need to "svn update -r178" before applying the merge if the merge causes conflicts.
