This page gives you some bookmarks to use the Bugzilla <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/">

Apache Bug Database</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This link <a href="http://issues.apache.org/">issues.apache.org</a> connects you

to the complete list of Apache Bug Database systems.

Has It Been Reported?
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the current nightly build doesn't resolve your problem, it is
|
|
possible that someone else has reported the issue. It is time to
|
|
look at . This system is easy to use, and it will
|
|
let you search the <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&email1=&emailtype1=substring&emailassigned_to1=1&email2=&emailtype2=substring&emailreporter2=1&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&changedin=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&product=Ant&short_desc=&short_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&long_desc_type=substring&bug_file_loc=&bug_file_loc_type=substring&keywords=&keywords_type=anywords&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0=&order=bugs.bug_id">
|
|
currently open</a> and resolved bugs to see if your problem has
|
|
already been reported. If your problem has been reported, you can
|
|
see whether any of the developers have commented, suggesting
|
|
workarounds, or the reason for the bug, etc. Or you may have
|
|
information to add (see about creating and modifying bug reports
|
|
below), in which case, go right ahead and add the information.
|
|
If you don't have any additional information, you may just want
|
|
to vote for this bug, and perhaps
|
|
add yourself to the <code>CC</code> list to follow the progress
|
|
of this bug.

|
|
Filing a Bug Report
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Please read our document about <a href="problems.html">problems</a>
|
|
before deciding that there is an unreported
|
|
bug in Ant.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You have a few choices at this point. You can send
|
|
an email to the <code>user</code> mailing list
|
|
to see if
|
|
others have encountered your issue and find out how they may
|
|
have worked around it. If after some discussion, you feel it
|
|
is time to create
|
|
a bug report, this is a simple operation in the bug database.
|
|
Please try to provide as much information as possible in order
|
|
to assist the developers in resolving the bug. Please try to enter
|
|
correct values for the various inputs when creating the bug, such
|
|
as which version of Ant you are running, and on which platform,
|
|
etc. Once the bug is created, you can also add attachments to
|
|
the bug report.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
What information should you include in your bug report? The
|
|
easiest bugs to fix are those that are most easily reproducible,
|
|
so it is really helpful if you can produce a small test case that
|
|
exhibits the problem. In this case, you would attach the build file
|
|
and any other files necessary to reproduce the problem, probably
|
|
packed together in an archive. If you can't produce a test case,
|
|
you should try to include a snippet from your build file and the
|
|
relevant sections from the verbose or debug output from Ant. Try
|
|
to include the header information where Ant states the version,
|
|
the OS and VM information, etc. As debug output is likely to be
|
|
very large, it's best to remove any output that is not
|
|
relevant. Once the bug is entered into the bug database, you
|
|
will be kept informed by email about progress on the bug. If
|
|
you receive email asking for further information, please try to
|
|
respond, as it will aid in the resolution of your bug.
|
|
</p>
|

|
|
Asking for an Enhancement
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Sometimes, you may find that Ant just doesn't do what you need it
|
|
to. It isn't a bug, as such, since Ant is working the way it is
|
|
supposed to work. Perhaps it is some additional functionality for
|
|
a task that hasn't been thought of yet, or maybe a completely new
|
|
task. For these situations, you will
|
|
want to raise an <i>enhancement request</i>. Enhancement requests
|
|
are managed using the same Apache Bug Database described above.
|
|
These are just a different type of bug report. If you look in the
|
|
bug database, you will see that one of the severity settings for
|
|
a bug is "Enhancement". Just fill the bug report in,
|
|
set the severity of the bug to "Enhancement", and
|
|
state in the description how you would like to have Ant enhanced.
|
|
Again, you should first check whether there are any existing
|
|
enhancment requests that cover your needs. If so, just add your
|
|
vote to these.

<a name="Fixing the Bug"></a>
|
|
Fixing the Bug
|
|
</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you aren't satisfied with just filing a bug report, you can
|
|
try to find the cause of the problem and provide a fix yourself.
|
|
The best way to do that is by working with the latest code from Subversion.
|
|
Alternatively, you can work with the source code available from the
|
|
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/srcdownload.cgi">
|
|
source distributions</a>. If you
|
|
are going to tackle the problem at this level, you may want to
|
|
discuss some details first on the <code>dev</code>
|
|
mailing list. Once you have a fix for the problem, you may submit
|
|
the fix as a <i>patch</i> to either the
|
|
<code>dev</code> mailing
|
|
list, or enter the bug database as described above and attach the
|
|
patch to the bug report. Using the bug database has the advantage
|
|
of being able to track the progress of your patch.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you have a patch to submit and are sending it to the
|
|
<code>dev</code> mailing list,
|
|
prefix "[PATCH]"
|
|
to your message subject (this is also a good idea for
|
|
a subject line in the bug database).
|
|
Please include any relevant bug numbers.
|
|
Patch files should be created with the <code>-u</code>
|
|
option of the
|
|
<code>diff</code> or <code>svn diff</code> command. For
|
|
example:<br /><br />
|
|
<font face="verdana" size="-1">
|
|
diff -u Javac.java.orig Javac.java > javac.diffs<br /><br />
|
|
</font>
|
|
or, if you have source from Subversion:<br /><br />
|
|
<font face="verdana" size="-1">
|
|
svn diff Javac.java > javac.diffs<br /><br />
|
|
</font>
|
|
|
|
Note: You should give your patch files meaningful names.
|
|
This makes it easier for developers who need to apply a number
|
|
of different patch files.
