Re: troubles using java 5

2006-04-26 Thread John B. Walker
Mouna,

This seems like an ANT compile problem.  If I were you, I would subscribe to
and post this to the Apache ANT user list at (
http://ant.apache.org/mail.html) and include your ANT build script (usually
build.xml), and let the friendly folks know which ANT target is giving you
all that trouble.

By the way, whomever used .classpath as a reference in your build must have
had the file originate in some derivation of Eclipse because of the eclipse
reference in the JRE_CONTAINER classpath con entry.

HTH,
John Walker

 Thank you for your answers all!
 To answer most of your questions:
 - I use neither Eclipse/ RAD nor WSAD/Eclipse! As I said other persons
 developped the GUI module and it doesn't seem they have used these tools!
 -I think that I've included all required files inthe classpath unless
 there
 is some specific files to include when using jdk 1.5 !! What suprised me
 is
 that  my application run normally whith jdk 1.4.2, and even the jars
 included in the .classpath was read without any problems! Here is my
 .classpath:

 Does the last lineclasspathentry kind=con path=
 org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER/ affect the use of the jre
 chosen?

 All in all, I'm almost blocked in this step of building my project!!
 And I remind that when I remove the  GUI module from the build, the
 application run fine!!!

 I'll be gratefull for any help !
 Thanks

  You are using WSAD/Eclipse, correct?  In which case your .classpath file
  points to all of those nifty things in your project that should be used
 to
  compile your application, including the classes and libraries that are
  referenced by the compiler and run-time code.
 
  To me, it sounds like you have a ZIP or a JAR file on your CLASSPATH
  (referenced in the .classpath file) that cannot be read using the ZIP
  libraries in WSAD/Eclipse.  In other words... one of the files in your
  classpath is supposed to be either a ZIP or a JAR but is not.
 
  Do you have a DLL, readme.TXT or some other non-zip file referenced by
  your
  project's classpath?

Thanks Ted!  I will dust off my old sourceforge.net account and take this
conversation off the user group with you personally.  I appreciate the
help.  It's people like you that make it easy for developers to come into
the Open Dev community.

Thanks again,
John

 The first step would be to get the code out there where people can
 try it. This can simply  be a matter of setting up a home page that
 describes the product with a link to download the package. A very good
 way to get started is to setup a Java.net or Sourceforge.net project.
 If you don't want to start your own project, there is a Struts
 SourceForge project (struts.sf.net) where you could upload the code.
 Just take out a SourceForge account and let me know what your user id,
 and a working name for the product, and I'll setup a module for you,

 In general, the ASF isn't interested in donations of code that do not
 include a community of developers who are ready, willing, and able to
 maintain the code. The ASF has no paid staff, so we have to be sure
 that there are volunteers to do the work. The first step is finding
 volunteers to help with an open source project is to publish the
 source :)

 HTH, Ted.

Thanks Ted, that does help. I have taken this one step further than your
description.

I am a Sr Dev/Architect at my present company, and we've been using a tiered
architecture that flows like so:

.NET (either ASP.NET or Windows Forms .NET)
  | (SOAP through .NET Web service proxy)
  V
Apache AXIS web services (Residing in Apache Tomcat)
  | (AXIS uses Java reflection here)
  V
Business Delegate pattern Java classes
  | (Didn't really delegate too much :) )
  V
Custom DAL layer
  | (JDBC)
  V
Database

Seeing the power of Struts, I wanted to move more toward an MVC
architecture, esp. since we have two view apps for this application.

Instead of utilizing Struts, because of its Java-centric view pieces, I have
developed an architecture based on the open source STRUTS framework.  Right
now this has three man-weeks worth of work into it. I have checked with the
Director of Technology at my company, and the company wants to contribute to
Open Source, since Struts and other Apache Group projects have made my life
ever so much easier.

I thought that since my custom framework was based on STRUTS, that this was
the right project to try to contribute back to the community.  My simple
code may not be up to snuff, but it's my meagre attempt at a
contribution.  I must admit, I would LOVE to begin to contribute back to the
community because of all that I have learned and benefited.

My next question for you Ted (or others), is:
How would I contribute this source back to Struts, and do you think that
the committee would be interested in adopting this framework into the Struts
project?

Thanks and Regards,
John Walker

 If you need to render an ASPX page, then either ASP.NET or MONO needs
 to be in the picture. Right now, I don't know of a way to run both
 ASP.NET and J2SE in the same application space. They could both use a
 common set of web services. I do know people who use ASP.NET to create
 web services, and then use a Java web framework on the front end.

 If the situation is that you have business logic trapped in Struts
 Actions that you want to access from an ASPX application, then you
 might be able to create web service to front the Action, and have the
 ASPX application access the web service. (The inverse of what I
 mentioned before.)

 One effort in that regard is

 * http://sourceforge.net/projects/strutsws

 If you are developing an ASPX application, I've found the Spring.NET
 framework very userful in my own work.

 * http://springframework.net/
