[dacapobench-researchers] Dacapo build under Windows - local properties question

[Dornen <dor...@gm...>]

  Hey,

I tried today to compile the source of the DaCapo benchmark via ant but 
was not very successfully, maybe someone have a solution for me here. I 
followed the instruction in the readme file (ant install / maven and all 
the needed environment variables).  Only thing I dont know, what do I 
have to change in the local properties fiile? Everytime I want to build 
one of the benchmark I recieve the same error: (for example h2)

/[exec] Execute failed: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "ant": 
CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified
BUILD FAILED
C:\Users\Normal\Desktop\dacapo\benchmarks\build.xml:277: The following 
error occurred while executing this line:
C:\Users\Normal\Desktop\dacapo\benchmarks\build.xml:243: Can't assign 
value '${h2-status}' to attribute code, reason: class 
java.lang.NumberFormatException with message 'For input string: 
"${h2-status}"'/

The command /ant source/  works fine and I got a successfull message at 
the end. I hope someone knows a solution for it. And one question to the 
mailinglist, how can I reply to a topic?

Thanks in advance

Best regards,
Michael
