Build fails if folder path in build.properties uses backslash
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: BEEHIVE-675
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-675
Project: Beehive
Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Versions: V1
Reporter: Rebecca Weinhold
bash05102005
In Step 1 (under the heading "Edit the build.properties File") of the Controls
tutorial, the user is to "Edit the beehive.home property so it points to the
top-level folder of your beehive installation." If the user enters this folder
path as "C:\apache\apache-beehive-1.0" instead of
"C:/apache/apache-beehive-1.0", the build fails when they perform "ant clean"
in Step 2, under the heading "To Compile and Deploy the Control".
The failure mentions that the file
"C:apacheapache-beehive-1.0/beehive-imports.xml" cannot be found, so it seems
that backslashes are simply not recognized by Ant. This requirement of using
forward slashes should be specified in the tutorial, as it is likely to come up
for Windows users.
