Ant Tasks do not work on the ZOS
--------------------------------
Key: MNG-2450
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2450
Project: Maven 2
Type: Bug
Components: Ant tasks
Versions: 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.0.3, 2.0.4
Environment: OS: Z/OS 1.4
JDK 1.4.2
Ant 1.6.5
Reporter: Jeff Maxwell
Priority: Critical
The current distribution does not work on Z/OS without modification.
The issue stems from the XML parser.
The plexus MXParser (org.codehaus.plexus.util.xml.pull.MXParser) does not
handle xml encoding and different character sets properly.
Any xml files that are sent to the MXParser MUST be in the same character set
as the operating system default.
Three files in the distribution META-INF/plexus/components.xml,
org/apache/maven/project/pom-4.0.0.xml and
org/codehaus/plexus/plexus-bootstrap.xml must be converted to EBCDIC in order
for the ant tasks to function.
Also any poms must be in EBCDIC regardless of the xml encoding.
