IT42738: IBMINT IGNORES LIB SPECIFIERS IN .CLASSPATH FILE AND DOESN'T CREATE JAR DIRECTORY ENTRIES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• ibmint command may not compile projects correctly with
  1) The "lib" specifiers in the ".classpath" file for Java and
  Test Projects are being ignored.
  2) JAR files created by ibmint do not contain directory entries
  leading to class files.
  In addition to this, ibmint package may throw BIP15204E (JAVA
  compilation phase failed) when compiling JAVA projects
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All Users of IBM App Connect Enterprise V12 who use ibmint
  command with Java Projects
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  ibmint command may not compile projects correctly with:
  
  1) The "lib" specifiers in the ".classpath" file for Java and
  Test Projects are being ignored.
  For example, when we have an entry in the ".classpath" file as
          <classpathentry kind="lib" path="JavaLibraryTwo.jar"/>
  
  Then while compiling we might get error(s) like
  BIP8409I: Compiling Java project
  '/tmp/ibmint-java/ApplicationThatUsesJava_Test'
  /tmp/ibmint-java/ApplicationThatUsesJava_Test/src/main/java/test
  /ace/ibmint/junit/ApplicationThatUsesJava_TestMessageFlow_Java_C
  ompute_0001_Test.java:19: error: package
  test.ace.ibmint.java.library does not exist
  import test.ace.ibmint.java.library.Two;
                                     &#94;
  /tmp/ibmint-java/ApplicationThatUsesJava_Test/src/main/java/test
  /ace/ibmint/junit/ApplicationThatUsesJava_TestMessageFlow_Java_C
  ompute_0001_Test.java:63: error: cannot find symbol

                          &#94;
    symbol:   variable Two
    location: class
  ApplicationThatUsesJava_TestMessageFlow_Java_Compute_0001_Test
  2 errors
  BIP15204E: The Java compilation phase for project
  '/tmp/ibmint-java/ApplicationThatUsesJava_Test' has failed.
  
  
  2) JAR files created by ibmint do not contain directory entries
  leading to class files. This Issue might be harder to hit but it
  causes ACE to fail to find a Java package for the tests it
  needs. The test class can be found, but the absence of the
  directory entries makes it impossible to detect the package.
  

Problem conclusion

• The Product has been modified and an additional environment
  variable called MQSI_EXTRA_BUILD_CLASSPATH has been added to
  allow extra JAR files to be added to the ibmint compile line.
