Description

Ant fails to find Groovyc class when using the groovy-all*.jar. However if the classpath is changed to point to GROOVY_HOME\lib it works fine. I have attached the build.xml file and fibonacci.groovy for example.

Here is the error ....
C:\Z>ant
Buildfile: build.xml

BUILD FAILED
C:\Z\build.xml:10: taskdef A class needed by class org.codehaus.groovy.ant.Groovyc cannot be found: org/apache/commons/cli/ParseException

Total time: 0 seconds
C:\Z>

This isn't a bug but current behaviour. The all jar doesn't include the commons-cli which you need. You may ask for a feature enhancement if you want a jar merging commons-cli.

Hi,

I have the same problem. It's really annoying to include the commons-cli.jar everytime just for the groovyc Ant task. The idea of the groovy-all-1.1-rc-1.jar is to include all dependencies. It contains the groovyc Ant task but not the required commons-cli.jar. It would be great when it could be included, hopefully in the 1.1 release.

Thanks,
Stefan

We should probably include commons-cli in the all jar.

This change has broken Grails. cf. GROOVY-2295. The problem is to do with Gant and how to compile it for use with groovy-all instead of groovy + commons-cli.

A fix has been proposed for the issue Russel mentioned which should mean the solution to this issue will not be impacted.

Which is why I didn't reopen the issue

I put the marker here more to ensure we had a proper connection between issues for documentation purposes.
