ANN: Linux TestFest
by Surendra Singhi 16 Jun '05

16 Jun '05

Love Linux? Love TESTING on Linux? We're SpikeSource, a bunch of passionate open source testing folks, and we're holding our first-ever TestFest on June 17th. We'll give you the chance to show how good your code really is by testing it using our new 'test harness'. We run 22,000 tests per day on over 63 open source components using this harness. This event kicks off our free testing service for the open source community. Mix and mingle with our developers to chat about open source testing. Hear from SpikeSource founder & CTO Murugan Pal on Participatory Testing and our architect, Sastry Malladi, about our Core stack product. Testing demonstrations on popular open source software will also be held for attendees. All developers are welcome! Check us out at www.spikesource.com/testfest.html, where you can register and learn how to package and test your code. On June 17th, 3pm, head over to SpikeSource offices in Redwood City to receive a report on your test results with helpful feedback from our staff. Lots of free food & beer to go around. Heck, we're even hiring. Should be a real geek fest! We hope to see you there. -- Surendra Singhi http://www.public.asu.edu/~sksinghi

Blojsom and Tomcat on FC4
by David J. Orme 31 May '05

31 May '05

Hi all, Today I tried to get Blojsom to run inside Tomcat as distributed with FC4 test3 (with all updates applied as-of this morning). It bombed with an error in the log file about a malformed regular expression. What is the correct place to report this bug? Best regards, Dave Orme -- Eclipse Visual Editor Project lead http://www.db4o.com -- The Open-source Java Object Database http://xswt.sf.net -- XML-based SWT page description language

My packaging priorities
by Gary Benson 26 May '05

26 May '05

During my recent native-compilation spree I mailed one of our internal lists with the priorities I personally assign to my packages. Tom Tromey pointed out that it'd be a good idea to make them public, so... Note that my task is to maintain Tomcat and Ant, so anywhere I've written "users" you should read it as "users of Tomcat and/or Ant". And if a package isn't in one of these bands then it's not one of mine. BAND 1: used by all users, all of the time ========================================== ant jakarta-commons-beanutils jakarta-commons-collections jakarta-commons-digester jakarta-commons-el jakarta-commons-logging jakarta-commons-modeler mod_jk mx4j regexp tomcat5 xerces-j2 xml-commons BAND 2: used by some users, some of the time ============================================ classpathx-jaf classpathx-mail gnu-crypto jakarta-commons-dbcp jakarta-commons-fileupload jakarta-commons-pool jakarta-commons-validator oro struts11 ldapjdk log4j xalan-j2 BAND 3: maybe someone out there uses it... ========================================== antlr avalon-framework avalon-logkit bcel cryptix cryptix-asn1 gnu.getopt jakarta-commons-lang jakarta-commons-launcher jakarta-taglibs-standard java_cup jdepend jlex junit puretls xml-commons-resolver As a concrete example of how the love gets dished out between them, you might notice that all band 1 packages are nativified now, one or two band 2 packages are nativified now (and I expect the number will increase in FC5) and that no band 3 packages are nativified (and it's likely to stay like that). Cheers, Gary

packaging questions
by Anthony Green 25 May '05

25 May '05

I have some packaging questions. First off, I've created a yum repository with my jogl RPMS. Just copy the following into /etc/yum.repos.d/spindazzle.org.repo and run... $ yum install jogl ---- cut here --------------------------------------------------- # All SRPMS are found in http://spindazzle.org/yum/FC4/SRPMS [spindazzle.org] name=spindazzle.org FC4 $basearch baseurl=http://spindazzle.org/yum/FC4/$basearch gpgkey=http://spindazzle.org/yum/green@spindazzle.org-pubkey.txt enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 ---- cut here --------------------------------------------------- I also tried packaging the Gears demo, but ran into a couple of problems. My spec file builds Gears like so: gcj -o Gears --main=demos.gears.Gears Gears.java -ljogl.jar I think this is supposed to work, since.... $ ls -l /usr/lib/libjogl.jar.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 May 24 17:12 /usr/lib/libjogl.jar.so -> libjogl-1.1b11.jar.so I've placed the Gears SRPM here: http://spindazzle.org/yum/FC4/SRPMS If you build it and try to install, you'll get: error: Failed dependencies: libjogl.jar.so is needed by jogl-demos-Gears-1.5-1fc.i386 I don't understand why I'm getting this, since the symlink and underlying library do exist. The next problem is that Gears executable won't run. When I try it I get a NullPointerException in VMClassLoader.resolveClass (this is the exception causing a LinkageError: unexpected exception during linking: net.java.games.jogl.GLCapabilities). The Gears demo _does_ run when I run it from bytecode and have the appropriate jar files in my CLASSPATH. Any suggestions re: these two problems? Thanks! AG

java-gcjHEAD-compat (or "How to use your gcc build to run Eclipse")
by Andrew Overholt 25 May '05

25 May '05

Hi, Tom Fitzsimmons and I (okay, it was mostly Tom ;) worked out how to have a set of alternatives for java, javac, etc. that can use a non-system gcc installation. This will allow you to easily run our Eclipse packages (among others) using your gcc builds. (I'm assuming here that you have a ~/.rpmmacros similar to [2]) 1. check java-1.4.2-gcj-compat out of Fedora CVS [1]. 2. cd into the java-1.4.2-gcj-compat/devel directory 3. make sources; cp *.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES 4. ensure that your gcc build is ahead of the system compiler in your path 5. rpmbuild \ --define "custom 1" \ --define "gcj_prefix <location of your build directory>" \ --define "origin gcj<YOURSUFFIX>" \ -ba java-1.4.2-gcj-compat.spec 6. install the resulting RPM (should be in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/<ARCH>/) 7. set your java and javac alternatives to be those of your gcc build: sudo /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --set javac \ /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj<YOURSUFFIX>/bin/javac sudo /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --set java \ /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj<YOURSUFFIX>/bin/java 8. verify that /usr/bin/java --version gives the same output as your gij Now running Eclipse (and other apps that use /usr/bin/java) should use your gcc build.

Oprofiling Eclipse CVS checkout
by Andrew Overholt 25 May '05

25 May '05

Hi, I'm trying to track down the cause of [1], so it was suggested to me that I run oprofile and see what's going on. I've done so and attached the output. I don't really know what I'm supposed to be seeing in this, so if someone who knows more could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. What I did: 1. sudo opcontrol --reset 2. sudo opcontrol --start --no-vmlinux 3. started eclipse and tried to check out GNU-Crypto [2] While this was going, I checked on gnu-crypto on the command line (on a different machine .. it's the same if I do it on the same machine as the one running Eclipse). The command line checkout started when the Eclipse checkout was about 20% or 30% completed and finished before the Eclipse checkout made it to 40% (these percentages are just rough estimates based upon the progress bars). 4. stopped the Eclipse checkout while it was still less than 50% completed and cleanly exited Eclipse 5. sudo opcontrol --stop 6. sudo opreport image-exclude:/no-vmlinux Thanks, Andrew [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=151832 [2] cvs -d :ext:anoncvs@savannah.gnu.org/cvsroot/gnu-crypto co gnu-crypto

Updated patch to find-and-aot-compile (formerly find-and-nativify)
by Robin Green 25 May '05

25 May '05

This patch to find-and-aot-compile incorporates previous suggestions (see previous thread "Patch to find-and-nativify"). In particular, instead of replicating the directory structure of the jars, it just stores the shlibs in one directory, because I can't see a realistic scenario where having the full directory structure would be necessary. The decision is a matter of personal taste AFAICS. (Sane packages should not contain two jars with the exact same basenames but different contents.) -- Robin --- find-and-aot-compile.orig 2005-05-08 13:08:01.000000000 +0100 +++ find-and-aot-compile 2005-04-28 03:31:05.000000000 +0100 @@ -12,20 +12,34 @@ (ex. eclipse) BUILD_OPTIONS - a list of gcj options to pass to aot-compile (outside of -findirect-dispatch, -shared, and -Wl,-Bsymbolic) + + By default, the generated database will assume libraries will go in /usr/lib. + To change this, set LIBDIR to the appropriate directory. + + Set SKIPTAR=y to skip tar file creation.

jogl package
by Anthony Green 24 May '05

24 May '05

Here's my first stab at an RPM with the new scripts (find-and-nativify and rebuild-gcj-db). It's the OpenGL java bindings: http://people.redhat.com/green/FC4 A couple of observations.... It's still not super-trivial to add native versions of jar files. See attached spec file. On the other hand, I don't know how we could make it simpler. Our libjawt.so.6 is a bit of a problem. I was unable to run any jogl code with a non-gcj alternative, since they all pick up /usr/lib/libjawt.so.6, which has references to our gtk peers and fails to load. Should libjawt.so be an alternative? Or can we install it somewhere gcj specific? AG

Eclipse 3.1M7
by Andrew Overholt 23 May '05

23 May '05

Hi, Thanks to the hard work of Ben Konrath, we've got 3.1M7 packages ready for FC4. Please test if you can: http://people.redhat.com/~overholt/eclipserpms (i386-only ... I've got the other architectures working and I'm testing everything on ppc) I'm going to push them into the build system today since today is the freeze. I haven't noticed any problems with the new packages and I can build the CDT with them, so I think we're good to go. We will much closer to upstream with these packages and will be able to track any major upstream issues up until 3.1 final (which will be after FC4 final). Thanks, Andrew

Mrs.Lydia Anatoljevitch C/o Eglise(Catholic church ) Liberte Sicap 1, Dakar Senegal. Tel:+221 694 18 91 Good Day. , I know this mail will come to you as a surprise. Nevertheless I am Mrs.Lydia Anatoljevitch, aged 59 years, the wife of Major Viktor Anatoljevitch, Chief Security Officer and Aide-de�camp to the exiled president Charles Tailor of Liberia . As a result of the on-going problem in my country, I am saddled with problems of my ill-health of protracted diabetes and high blood pressure which is getting of increase in the recent times, more importantly getting a trust worthy individual abroad to receive the sum of US$13.2million on our behalf which I intend to invest in your company. Due to this crises presently in my city Monrovia our home town, I managed to sneak myself and my son David 23 years of age and four other of my daughters out of Monrovia to Dakar senegal for safety. We were sneaked into Dakar Senegal through the land boarder by the help of some government militant group. After the killing of my husband by the rebels, we decided to come down here to Dakar senegal to secure the this deposit deposited here by my husband and to further look for a trust worthy individual abroad to receive these deposit which has being deposited here in Dakar Senegal before he was eventually killed by the heartless rebels. I feel confident therefore to introduce myself to you based on this problem and our present condition as all our foreign contacts and connections got lost during this crises, all properties burnt by the rebels. I am desperately in need to move and re-locate this huge deposit to your country for safe keeping as this is the only wealth remaining for the future survival and well being of my large family. For your percentage for assistance, a negotiable percentage will be discussed as soon as I receive your response based on this please for your assistance as our lives are highly in danger due to this problem. I pray and plead for your help. Please endavour to email me back for further clarifications over this issue. God bless you as you respond to my plea for assistance.My telephone + 221 694 18 91 and phone will be open for your call any time but if I am available the time of your call, my son David will respond to you accordingly. Sincerely yours. Mrs. Lydia Anatoljevitch.

No run configurations
by A.J.Delaney＠brighton.ac.uk 19 May '05

19 May '05

Hey all, I've not been lurking for very long, but I'll put in my speak anyway :) I run Eclipse 3.0.2 (vanilla) on Sun's JDK 1.5 and the ultra-cool-eclipse 3.1.0 (Fedora rawhide) on gcj (Red Hat 4.0.0-6) on the same workspace. When running ultra-cool-eclipse I have no run configurations. It's also not possible to add a new run configuration as the "New" button in the Run->Run dialog is grey'ed out. I also don't have a syntax highlighting editor. I get a plain text editor with no nice colours. Are these problems cause by me running two versions of Eclipse on the same workspace? Or are they well known issues? Or is is something else? -- Aidan Delaney Lecturer, School of Computing, Mathematics and Information Sciences, University of Brighton.

jre rhOOo & fc3
by Morgan Read 17 May '05

17 May '05

Hi, If I'm in the wrong place I'm happy to be pointed to another forum. I'm trying to install "Mobile Device Support Pack" for rhOOo (1.2) on fc3 as described here: <http://xml.openoffice.org/xmerge/downloads/index.html> I've installed jre 1.5, but I'm getting some errors on the install of XMergeInstall.jar Error on install: # java -jar XMergeInstall.jar Cannot find sversion.ini/.sversionrc - In addition I get a popup window: "Could not locate the OpenOffice settings file. Are you sure StarOffice is installed on your system?" Also, I probably need to "register" jre for OOo somehow? Alternatively to resolving the above (if not resolvable) should I - - following info in Bug 147019 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=147019> re xmerge, install rhOOo from rawhide? - or, install OOo from the OOo; I'd prefer to stay with rh install? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks, Morgan.

Problems bootstrapping java-1.4.2-gcj4.0-compat build
by David Walluck 05 May '05

05 May '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have made a partial list of requirements for a base system and I've run into a few problems when trying to build everything from the ground up. First, here is the (partial) list: * jpackage-utils * java-1.4.2-gcj4.0-compat o Requires: eclipse-ecj o Requires: gjdoc + BuildRequires: antlr o Requires: jessie + Requires: gnu-crypto # BuildRequires: ant # BuildRequires: bcel * BuildRequires: regexp # BuildRequires: javamail (classpathx) * BuildRequires: classpath-inetlib-javadoc # BuildRequires: jaf (classpathx) # BuildRequires: jakarta-commons-logging * BuildRequires: avalon-logkit o BuildRequires: servlet (tomcat5) * BuildRequires: avalon-framework o BuildRequires: xalan-j2 + BuildRequires: jlex + BuildRequires: java_cup o BuildRequires: xerces-j2 # BuildRequires: jdepend # BuildRequires: jsch * BuildRequires: jzlib # BuildRequires: junit # BuildRequires: log4j * BuildRequires: xml-commons-apis # BuildRequires: oro # BuildRequires: regexp # BuildRequires: xml-commons-resolver The major problem stems from the requirements (not the build requirements) of java-1.4.2-gcj4.0-compat. Now, antlr can be built without ant or the gcj-compat package, so it should be fine as well as should gjdoc. Then, our first problem comes from eclipse-ecj. If this is supposed to come from eclipse, then there is a major bootstrapping problem, as eclipse has many dependencies. However, ecj used to be distributed separately. I tried building it, but it relies on katana, and the build for ecj fails when katana fails with some exception. Anyway, I don't know if the current wrapper scripts for gcj-compat even honor this eclipse-ecj jar which has a different name than the current eclipse-ecj as far as I can tell. Note that ecj is still in fedora development, but katana is not (even though it is required by eclipse-ecj). A minor issue seems to be that classpathx-mail requires classpath-inetlib-javadoc, only I can't find a separate classpath-inetlib package. Instead, it seems to be in the classpathx-mail rpm, in which case no package can provide the classpath-inetlib-javadoc dependency that is needed. The other major problem is jessie. Does java-1.4.2-gcj4.0-compat really need jessie? Probably it does not for any of the base requirements. It may be possible to leave this requirement out initially, or leave it out together, and pull in jessie some other way. The final big headache seems to be that all of tomcat5 would need to be built to satisfy the servlet requirement of jessie. As I recall, servlet also used to be distributed separately from tomcat5. This would be a great win in terms of simplifying how many packages would need to be bootstrapped. I would like some opinions on how to handle the ecj requirement and the jessie/servlet requirement. Keep in mind that if jessie is required by gcj-compat, then twenty-something packages (not even including tomcat5) would need to be built, and yet we don't have a compatible jdk installed. Obviously, nearly everything can be solved by providing a separate eclipse-ecj that actually builds, and not requiring jessie. A separate servlet rpm would also be nice, to save pulling in everything required by tomcat5. - -- Sincerely, David Walluck <david(a)zarb.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mandriva - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCeVkZarJDwJ6gwowRAs7pAKCPupgCD96COHCFmaozkQ6Z1n3iPQCgkUci j2aJyRoHcEgMa2GilPDlC2Q= =ohdw -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
