Package: libant1.6-java
Version: 1.6.2-2.1

The <gjdoc> task consistently fails, without explanation

Using the attached build.xml & commons digester -  
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/digester/


myhost% /usr/lib/kaffe/bin/java -classpath  
/usr/share/ant1.6/lib/ant.jar:/usr/share/ant1.6/lib/ant-launcher.jar:/ 
usr/share/java/gnu-classpath-tools-gjdoc.jar:/usr/share/java/com-sun- 
javadoc.jar:/usr/share/java/com-sun-tools-doclets-Taglet.jar:.  
org.apache.tools.ant.Main echo


- the <echo> task never runs because the "javadoc" target always fails

In trying to understand the problem, I prepared the attached Main.java  
- to simulate the call made by Gjdoc.java:2170

However -


fis% /usr/lib/kaffe/bin/java -classpath  
/usr/share/ant1.6/lib/ant.jar:/usr/share/ant1.6/lib/ant-launcher.jar:/ 
usr/share/java/gnu-classpath-tools-gjdoc.jar:/usr/share/java/com-sun- 
javadoc.jar:/usr/share/java/com-sun-tools-doclets-Taglet.jar:. Main


- succeeds! Far as I am able to tell, Main.java should invoke  
gnu.classpath.tools.gjdoc.Main identically to Gjdoc.java - I don't  
understand these two cases different behaviors

I used gjdoc 0.7.4-1 & kaffe 1.1.5-3 - sablevm is broken for me at the  
moment

If fixing the <gjdoc> task is impractical, maybe it should be removed  
in favor of the <javadoc> task?

Best wishes!

Jack
