On OS X - roo-dev stopped working for me

[krimple]

I have the read-only trunk installed on my machine, and for a while I was able to type roo-dev (before 1.0.0.M2) and have it pull up the development changes to the platform.

I have been playing with changes and enhancements in the tree as they come available (and verifying that issues I create aren't already fixed in future revisions) so it would be helpful to have this working.

But recently I see errors in trying to find the bootstrap class. Did the installation procedure of linking to roo-mvn change recently? I am on OS X Leopard running JDK 1.6 64-bit (java full version "1.6.0_13-b03-211"). I do remember to chmod +x the roo-mvn script once I get an update in subversion.

Here is the output I get. Doesn't see a ROO_CLASSPATH_FILE because I don't create one... So that may be an issue, but I thought this was figured out via the script itself.

[Stefan Schmidt]

Hi Ken,

I have set the ROO_CLASSPATH_FILE in my environment to:

ROO_CLASSPATH_FILE="/home/sschmidt/path/to/spring-roo/bootstrap/target/roo_classpath.txt"

Then when you do a fresh checkout you need to make sure that the roo_classpath.txt file is re-generated. Here is what I usually do:

mvn clean eclipse:clean eclipse:eclipse compile

I have not tested this on a Mac though.

Regards,
Stefan

Yep, this works. Thanks.

I wonder though, does doing this make using the roo command line honor the same classpath as roo-dev? I'd like to have both environments available and thought that it was working that way before.

Ken

[Stefan Schmidt]

Well, at least for us the whole point is to keep them seperate . We use the roo shell for testing released versions (such as M2) and roo-dev to work with during development. So I am not sure why you would want to have them both do exactly the same.

-Stefan

[krimple]

No, maybe I was unclear. I was worried that setting this variable would affect the roo shell too. Glad to hear they are still separate.
