[Springframework-developer] Petclinic, ant.bat, and Weird issue trying to run unit tests

[Ken K. <kk...@kk...>]

Juergen,

1. new spring.tld
<juergen>
Jean-Pierre and Ken: Please re-test Countries and Petclinic (better 
after the TLD name change), especially the versions that the release 
target in our Spring Ant script generates. Simply unzip the generated 
spring-framework-0.9.1.zip somewhere and "act like a user".
</juergen>
This has been done for Petclinic and no problems were found :-) .

2. ant.bat and "Weird issue trying to run unit tests"
This continues to be a problem. I had previously mentioned difficulties 
I had with the nested "setupDB" target using the ant.bat supplied with 
Petclinic. I followed the new instructions and ran the hsqldb server 
from the db/hsqldb dir as instructed instead of the dir I usually use. 
Why it won't work  unless I do it this way is mystifying to me. The 
"setupDB" target now works :-)  but the "test" target now fails :-( 
 reporting :
"BUILD FAILED blahblahblah Could not create task or type of type: junit. 
" just as Colin reported. I do have junit.jar and optional.jar in my 
ant/lib dir.
Just as with the "setupDB" problem, I can work around it by invoking the 
standard ant.bat that is supplied with ant.
