[Laszlo-dev] For Review: Change 41920 Summary: Make build system require and work with ant 1.6.

[Benjamin Shine]

Any Windows guys up for giving this a shot? I need QA before a  
technical review; no point in reviewing it technically if it doesn't  
work on Windows.
Now, if only Tucker had a MacBook Pro...

Change 41920 by ben at ben-linux-builder-ws4 on 2006/04/28 20:14:55  
*pending*

	Summary: Make build system require and work with ant 1.6.
	   This needs to be tested on Windows and Mac, and with ant 1.6.5.
	   Requires ant 1.6.1, not tested with ant 1.6.5.
	
	New Features:
	   Tomcat is not a service on windows anymore -- I hope. Needs to be  
tested!
	
	Bugs Fixed:
	
	Technical Reviewer: ptw (pending)
	QA Reviewer: frisco (pending)
	Doc Reviewer: jrs (pending)
	
	Documentation:
	   This change now uses, and requires, ant 1.6.1. The advantage of  
using
	   ant 1.6 is that it lets us use modern tomcat ant tasks to manage  
tomcat.
	   Also that ant 1.6 is the current version in wide use, so many people
	   won't have "old" ant 1.5.
	   This change also gets rid of old tasks which support tomcat 4.
	
	   ant 1.6.1 is available in the tools directory as apache- 
ant-1.6.1. Get
	   that directory, then set ANT_HOME to the path/to/apache- 
ant-1.6.1, and
	   modify your path to point to this ant, not 1.5.1.
	
	Release Notes:
	
	Details:
	
	Tests:
	   ant stop
	   ant start
	   ant install
	   ant uninstall
	   ant list
