Thread: configure finds ant (screensaver)
Francisco Canedo (fcanedo at soneramail nospam nl) reports a bug with a severity of 3 The lower the number the more severe it is. Short Description configure finds ant (screensaver) Long Description configure finds the path to the 'ant' screensaver when it's trying to find the jdbc build tool. This leads to some weirderror message during build! I would suggest to have configure check the version of ant if at all possible. Sample Code No file was uploaded with this report

If you type:
$ ant -version
$ echo $?
What do you get? I want to add a configure test and java ANT likes the
-version flag.

On some systems ant is installed as jakarta-ant because of this conflict, so maybe we should check for that, too. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://funkturm.homeip.net/~peter

I've checked in a change that checks for jakarta-ant before ant (that seems to be the popular alternative name in case of conflict), and also runs a little test compile with ant to see if it works. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://funkturm.homeip.net/~peter
