Great, thanks!

Now to get a java neophyte like myself to be able to use it. I'm trying to specify the location in the main build.xml file (no idea if this is how to do it):

<macrodef name="myant"> <attribute name="target" default=""/> <!-- attribute name="args" default="${sge.ant.args}"/ --> <attribute name="dir" default="${basedir}"/> <sequential> <echo>myant: Doing target="@{target}" on directory "@{dir}"</echo> <java classname="org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher" fork="true" failonerror="true" dir="@{dir}"> <jvmarg value="-Djava.compiler=none"/> <classpath> <pathelement path="${java.class.path}"/> <pathelement location="${libs.junit.classpath}"/> <pathelement location="/usr/share/java/commons-codec.jar"/> </classpath> <!-- arg line="@{args} @{target}"/ --> <arg line="@{target}"/> </java> </sequential> </macrodef>

but it doesn't seem to take:

[java] [javac] 1. ERROR in /export/home/orion/fedora/gridengine/devel/gridengine/source/libs/juti/java/com/sun/grid/security/login/GECATrustManagerLoginModule.java (at line 35) [java] [javac] import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64; [java] [javac] ^^^^^^^^^^ [java] [javac] The import org.apache cannot be resolved

Thoughts?

Ohh sorry, but I am not sure you will find a drop in replacement, the commons-codec version does not convert to Strings always works with byte arrays, but you can change a little the code, for example

// sun code String encodedData = Base64.encode(data);

// new code String encodedData = null; try { encodedData = new String(Base64.encodeBase64(data), "UTF-8"); } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) { // can not happen, UTF-8 is always supported }

Hope this helps

Finally figured out where to add the path, but it looks like it's not a drop in replacement for the com.sun class:
