[armedbear-devel] Build problem

Can anybody help with this build problem? I'm on MACOSX 10.5.8 trying to build from SVN, which I updated a few minutes ago. Buildfile: build.xml abcl.copy.lisp: [copy] Copying 171 files to /Users/pdo/Lisp/ABCL/build/classes abcl.init: [echo] java.version: 1.5.0_19 [echo] Implementation-Source: ${version.src} abcl.java.warning: abcl.jsr-223.notice: [echo] [echo] Notice: JSR-223 support won't be built since it is not [echo] supported, neither natively by your JVM nor by [echo] libraries in the CLASSPATH. [echo] abcl.compile.java: [javac] Compiling 268 source files to /Users/pdo/Lisp/ABCL/build/ classes abcl.fasls.uptodate: abcl.compile.lisp: [java] Armed Bear Common Lisp 0.15.0 [java] Java 1.5.0_19 Apple Inc.

[…] It doesn't look like you are compiling from [SVN HEAD][1], as it should report "Armed Bear Common Lisp 0.17.0-dev" as of a couple weeks ago. If your intention is to build the latest ABCL, I think you need to pull the correct source. If you are trying to build an older version of ABCL, could you supply the URI you are using to build the source? The only other piece of advice might be that OS X has sometimes non-obvious character case folding rules. You might want to try renaming 'ABCL' to 'abcl' to see if that helps anything out. I use OS X as my primary development environment for ABCL, so its not like you are trying to build on some sort of exotic enviroment.

Thanks for your suggestions Mark. My problem turned out to be a previous abcl.jar elsewhere in my classpath that was being picked up during the build process. Regards, Paul
