junit4 behavior change

JUnit4 being obsoleted by JUnit
by Stanislav Ochotnicky 16 Jun '10

16 Jun '10

Recent versions of JUnit4 have backward compatible layer that is able to emulate JUnit versions 3.x.x. We currently have 4.8.2 in rawhide thanks to Alexander Kurtakov. I have done some testing of this backward compatibility and I was able to successfully replace junit with recent junit4 and build packages: * jakarta-commons-logging * jakarta-commons-io * jakarta-commons-dbcp * eclipse (unmodified spec, but replaced junit.jar symlink in /usr/share/java with junit4.jar) This means we can begin phasing out separate junit4 package and basically overwrite junit package with it. This will be done probably in the next few days. New version of junit will of course offer backward compatible symlinks, so no modifications to your packages should be necessary. Problems might occur anyway, so take this as a heads-up. junit package in devel is currently orpahned and I plan to take it and do these changes, unless anyone has conflicting ideas. Other ideas are welcome too of course. -- Stanislav Ochotnicky <sochotnicky(a)redhat.com> Associate Software Engineer - Base Operating Systems Brno PGP: 71A1677C Red Hat Inc. http://cz.redhat.com

Looks like that gij doesn't use xerces to provide jaxp services: # alternatives --display jaxp_parser_impl jaxp_parser_impl - status is manual. link currently points to /usr/share/java/xerces-j2.jar /usr/share/java/libgcj-4.4.4.jar - priority 20 /usr/share/java/xerces-j2.jar - priority 40 Current `best' version is /usr/share/java/xerces-j2.jar. But running ant with gij and gcj yelds: ------------------------------------------- XML Parser information ------------------------------------------- XML Parser : org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserImpl XML Parser Location: /usr/share/java/jaxp_parser_impl.jar Namespace-aware parser : org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserImpl$JAXPSAXParser Namespace-aware parser Location: /usr/share/java/jaxp_parser_impl.jar Maybe gij finds it's own jaxp implementation in libgcj.jar before trying xerves, and so ant works. But I don't like the idea of making whatever jaxp parser comes in libgcj be the system-wide default for JDK 5. Or maybe gij and classpath provide for some JDK6 features, including the class file format. []s, Fernando Lozano

Re: [fedora-java] ant with jdk5

Hi there, I filled Bug 601830 about this problem we were discussing on the users list. So far it looks like xerces-j2 was built for Fedora-13 using OpenJDK6 but without a target directive, and thus requires Java >= 1.6.0. This prevents me from running Apache Ant using Sun JDK 5 (repackaged by JPackage standards). I hope the mantainer decides this is worth to fix and release a new xerces-j2 package compatible with at least Java 1.5.0. In the mean time: - What is class data version 45.3 (from log4j.jar)? - How to install (from Fedora or JPackage repos) an jaxp_parser_impl.jar / Xerces J2 complied for JDK 5m if there is such a thing? - If there isn't, where should I change the SPEC from xervers-j2*src.rpm to rebuild it using Sun JDK5 or to add target=1.5.0? - How can it be that ant runs fine using gij which in theory supports only Java 5, but not with Sun JDK 5?

Howto for Java on Fedora
by Paul Michael Reilly 03 Jun '10

03 Jun '10

I've been running Sun Java on my Fedora systems for years and years now. Having just installed F13, I figured I'd see how the yum induced Java experience is lately. So I blithely yum installed Ant and ran "ant -version" only to discover the classpath is not nice. So I figured I'd google the Fedora Java howto documentation after discovering there is next to nothing in /usr/share/doc/ant-1.7.1 that is Fedora specific. But no such documents exist. Or at least my simple minded queries are not turning up anything along the lines of: "Here's what you want to do to set up a decent Java programming experience in recent Fedora releases (say, f10 on up)" True, there is a fedoraproject.org wiki page on JavaFAQ but that seems very stale (f9 based) and there is a fedoraunity project that has some material on Fedora/Java, but no sites that I would characterize as authoritative or definitive. Is anyone paying attention to this list aware of "good" Java/Fedora documentation? Is there interest (other than mine) in seeing Fedora be used as a first class Java development platform? If there is, in fact, an opportunity to fill this gap, would the fedoraproject.org wiki be the place to put something? Someplace else? Thanks, -pmr

I'm looking for someone to review the eclipse-ptp package: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=529278 Description: The aim of the parallel tools platform project is to produce an open-source industry-strength platform that provides a highly integrated environment specifically designed for parallel application development. The project will provide: - a standard, portable parallel IDE that supports a wide range of parallel architectures and runtime systems - a scalable parallel debugger - support for the integration of a wide range of parallel tools - an environment that simplifies the end-user interaction with parallel systems The photran project (which is already in Fedora and I maintain) merged with PTP and so this package replaces that. It's a big package, I'm afraid, but I hope it's mostly all set. -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com
