Ant-Users,
I am experiencing an interesting problem when using Ant 1.5Beta3 and
JUnit3.7 (on Windows2000).
I have a <junit> task that runs my unit tests. I have chosen to set
fork="no" so that the tests run a little faster (I can set fork="yes"
for the nightly build).
I have set up 2 formatters one of type="xml" and one of type "plain".
Both of these are reporting to files.
My unit tests have import statements including some XML (SAX) classes,
that should be loaded from j2ee.jar (from J2EE1.3.0, required by our app
server) that is in my test classpath.
What seems to be happening is that JUnit is correctly finding and
loading the classes from j2ee.jar, but when the task's XML formatter object
tries to start writing it's output it's using the classes loaded from
j2ee.jar rather than the xml-apis/xalan jars in the Ant lib, and so I
get a java.lang.LinkageError error.
If I set fork="yes" then I don't have this issue. But, this all worked
fine with Ant1.4.1, so I'm puzzled why it's stopped working now.
As an aside, is there anyway to tell the <junit> task to fork into just
one JVM, rather than one per test class found? That way the JVM would
be 'clean' for the unit testing, and would not rely on the classes
already loaded by the system or ant classloaders, but would not take as
long as starting a number of JVMs?
Any clues or ideas would be great, but I do want to continue using the
Ant-based JUnit runner as it has all the nice logging features that
help with my reporting.
The relevant parts of the build.xml and output are included below...
Andy.
