http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39359 Summary: Problems with OSD-5 filespecs and return codes on OpenVMS Product: Ant Version: 1.7Alpha (nightly) Platform: HP OS/Version: OpenVMS Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] We're currently looking into some problems with filespecs and return codes on OpenVMS. These are two areas where OpenVMS is very different from Unix-like operating systems. Filespecs on OpenVMS have a different format than standard Unix filespecs. A conversion routine to convert between the Unix-style and OpenVMS-style formats is already in FileUtils.java, but it is out of date since it assumes (older) ODS-2 style OpenVMS filespecs, and the current format is ODS-5 style. We propose to update this routine to support the conversion of ODS-5 style OpenVMS filespecs to/from Unix-style filespecs. In addition, OpenVMS normally returns a 1 for success from functions and system calls, for failures it returns a value which is a predefined error code > 1. However, Java assumes that the return value is the number of errors encountered, which means that 0 is successful. We're proposing changes to Execute.java to control which return style is used (conditionally on OpenVMS systems) by checking the value of a logical name on OpenVMS (like an environment variable). Also in Execute.java, some changes to the way certain DCL commands are built will enable tasks like <exec/> to work properly. At this time, if the argument to <exec/> is an image represented by a Unix-style filespec, the <exec/> will fail. As an example, a test suite that reproduces these problems is Test: org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.SignJarTest [test-junit] Tests run: 32, Failures: 2, Errors: 19, Time elapsed: 284.826 sec With your permission we will post the entire test results (from OpenVMS) before and after and the patches here to this bug report. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
