I have checked in some build logic which automatically sets the compiler classpath properties. This is part of the work on DERBY-3117 and the goal, ultimately, is to have a Derby build script which works out of the box without any customizing of ant.properties.

In order to take advantage of this automatic property setting today, you need to remove some existing properties from your ant.properties (j14lib, j15lib, java14compile.classpath, java15compile.classpath) and, instead, set the following in ant.properties:

autosetProps=on

That is, right now you have to request the automatic setting of properties. A month from now, I would like to make automatic property setting the default. Note that even after automatic property setting becomes the default, you will still be able to override the defaults by setting the properties as you do today.

Over the next month, I would appreciate it if people could try out the automatic property setting in their own environments and let me know if something breaks. I would like this to be as solid as possible before switching the default behavior.
I tried it out in my sandbox Rick, and it worked fine except for one thing that probably isn't related to your changes.

The first time I do "ant all" after having done "ant clean" or "ant clobber", the build fails when compiling

junitcomponents:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file to /usr/local/cluwin/vo136787/derby/source/trunk/classes [javac] Compiling 11 source files to /usr/local/cluwin/vo136787/derby/source/trunk/classes [javac] /usr/local/cluwin/vo136787/derby/source/trunk/java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/harness/Sed.java:35: package org.apache.oro.text.regex does not exist
   [javac] import org.apache.oro.text.regex.*;

As far as I can understand, for some reason it cannot find the jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar, but it is in my tools/java/ directory where it is supposed to be. When I do "ant all" again, it works, but it fails the same way every time I have done clean or clobber before. Any idea?

Hm. Could you try backing up your subversion client to just before my submission (596304) and re-run the experiment? Also, could you attach your ant.properties?

Thanks,
