Plutext

I would like to build the Dox4J project. So I followed the instructions on http://dev.plutext.org/trac/docx4j/wiki/DevEnv and I am using Java 1.6_10 with maven 2.0.9 ant 1.6.2 and on windows XP. As instructed I executed :
svn co http://dev.plutext.org/svn/docx4j/trunk/docx4j docx4j : which I assume got me the latest trunk version.

When executing the mvn install command I received the following error:

Code: Select all

In looking in the Surefire logs I see the details of the error:

At that point I wasn't sure what to do, but I thought I would try to go ahead and do an ant dist to build the docx4j jar file by calling ant dist and it came back with quite a few compiler errors.

Code: Select all

build-project:
     [echo] docx4j: C:\projects\docx4j\build.xml

    [javac] import javax.jcr.Property;

one weird thing is that it also seemed to be complaining about log4j:

Code: Select all

    [javac] C:\projects\docx4j\src\main\java\org\docx4j\JcrNodeMapper\AlfrescoJcrNodeMapper.java:32: cannot find symbol

    [javac]     private static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(AlfrescoJcrNodeMapper.class);
    [javac]                    ^

In looking at the M2 directory I don't see either log4j or javax.jcr

Do I need to manually add either log4j or the javax.jcr jars somewhere?
Do I need to be building with a different version of Java, ant, or maven?
Or is there something that I missed?

Thanks

Hi Ryan

docx4j uses maven to manage the dependencies in your IDE (eg Eclipse). I don't actually use Maven from the command line to do anything really except to generate a dependency tree, so that error with org.docx4j.diff.ParagraphDifferencerTest isn't a surprise.

docx4j does use ant to do builds.

As to your specific errors, looking at pom.xml, i see:

Code: Select all

      <dependency>
         <groupId>javax.jcr</groupId>
         <artifactId>jcr</artifactId>
         <version>1.0</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
         <groupId>log4j</groupId>
         <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
         <version>1.2.13</version>
      </dependency>

And looking at build.xml, I see:

Code: Select all

        <pathelement location="${m2Repository}/javax/jcr/jcr/1.0/jcr-1.0.jar"/>
        <pathelement location="${m2Repository}/log4j/log4j/1.2.13/log4j-1.2.13.jar"/>

Have you got m2eclipse configured? Either it or running mvn from the command line should have pulled down those 2 jars for you.

If for whatever reason maven can't get those jars for you, you could download them manually and alter build.xml to reference wherever you put them. Of course, you'll also need to change your build path in Eclipse if you want it to be happy to.

Finally, yes, re your svn co, you are using the correct sources.

I've tried to build the project just now. But failed.
I got an exception, i says "6/20/09 9:23:57 AM CST: Unable to read docx4j/pom.xml; java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException"

I've set my jre as:

Code: Select all

      <profile>
         <id>jdk16</id>
         <activation>
            <jdk>1.6</jdk>

         <dependencies>
            <dependency>
               <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
               <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
               <version>2.0</version>
               <scope>system</scope>
                <systemPath>${JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/rt.jar</systemPath>
            </dependency>
         </dependencies>
      </profile>
   </profiles>

BTW, I use WinXP, JDK1.60

does anybody know how to fix it ? thank you.

Try running mvn from within the docx4j dir?

docx4j only uses maven to get the dependencies.

Build with ant:

ant dist

Another way to get the dependencies is from the binary download which you probably already have.

Hope this helps. .. Jason

Very appreciate for your reply.
thank you, jason!
