FYI - Roo sources no longer build - broken on 29th Aug.

[RogerPf]

I have been succesfully building Roo from the spring git download for quite a while. I now find that the current master the branch i.e. 5428e5f09 no longer builds. Going back a few commits I see that -

0ae4ba8e - Does not build
ea4038ed - Does build

Looking at the changes between the too commits and the output shown below I notice that two Test files are deleted by the commit.

RespositryTest.java
ResourceTest.java

Could some test be trying to use them?


The problem I get is shown below error marked in red

This is not a moan, its just that I know we are getting near to Roo 1.2.0 and it MAY BE that this is a windows (my system) build issue, hence my report.

[Alan Stewart]

Did you try removing your Git repo and re-cloning it? I don't see any issues today.

[RogerPf]

Hi Alan
I did suspect that you were not seeing this issue in your builds.

Taking your question as a request I did just as you asked and also removed my nexus and started from an empty default local repo cache. Using a virgin Maven 3.0.3 (from STS 281M1) it - of course - still fails and/or succeeds exactly as described earlier.

But reading the actual error message tells me to go and look at the surefire reports - see the one shown below - {GUESS - could the lack of a missing UTF8 statement be what causing my windows build sys to see the problem?}

I have also attached all the reports for the failing module in a zip. One successeds the others fail.
I hope this helps.

[Alan Stewart]

This could be an issue. Andrew Swan will follow it up

[Andrew Swan]

At first glance, the only differences between the expected and actual outputs are the line terminators, which is a typical problem when moving between Windows and *nix-based systems like OS X. I'll try to replicate this on my Windows machine.

[Andrew Swan]

Those tests were indeed failing because of line separator differences. My last two commits for ROO-2658 fix those tests to work on any platform. Tested on OS X and Windows 7.

[RogerPf]

Yes, and (of course) it is building here too.

[Andrew Swan]

Great! Thanks for confirming that.
