Thanks for the update!

By the way, the Fisheye URLs give a certificate error since the certificate is only valid for the 'fisheye.springframework.org' hostname.

Chris, I have a question about building Spring 3 with Maven. I've checked out the trunk sources, and I see that in submodules there are pom.xml files. So I would like to build it with Maven. But I wasn't able to find any parent pom file, to build it all at once. Then I tried to build one of submodules: cd org.springframework.core, mvn install – and I got error "Unable to download artifact org.springframework:org.springframework.parent:pom:3.0-M1-SNAPSHOT"
So there is some parent pom, but looks like it is not included in trunk sources?

BTW, more general question: some time ago I remember there was information about plans of porting Spring to be build with Maven 2: see e.g. this post: http://blog.springsource.com/2006/09/15/yes-i-know-its-now-the-most-voted-for-issue-in-the-jira/
Now it looks like it was dropped, and there is something called "Spring build", with not much information about it around, what actually it is. You say it is Ant Ivy, but what's more above it? And what was the reasons for switching back to Ant and dropping plans of Maven migration?
I don't like to start another discussion Ant vs Maven here, I would simply like to find some arguments behind Spring decision. Personally, I hate Maven for its many bugs, design flaws, stupid decisions, unhelpful exception etc. Maven is far far far away from being perfect build tool – but having experience with Ant and Maven, I still believe Maven is better choice than Ant for Java projects that don't have completely non-standard build process. (For example: I see Eclipse project files stored on SVN, so I can simply import it into Eclipse IDE. But if I want to use other IDE, say NetBeans, it's not that easy; if spring was build with Maven, I could open it and build easily from any IDE: Eclipse, Netbeans etc. I did it for SpringSecurity, which is based on Maven, and it actually worked perfectly: I was able to build it with ease both from Eclipse and Netbeans). So I'm always interested in finding the reasons for the decision of going with Ant against Maven, especially in case of such projects/companies like SpringSource, which seems to already have good experience with Maven, on the example of SpringSecurity and probably other subprojects too.

For me it would also be very interesting to know, what the reason was to build with Ivy now.
I would like to give the 3.0M2 version a try and change the spring dependencies within my pom.xml. Are the 3.0M2 arfiacts accessible from some maven repository ?

@Kjetil – Regarding the certificate error, thanks. For the time being, I've changed the Fisheye links back to http://fisheye.springframework.org – they should work fine now.

@Grzegorz – Regarding maven POM files, good question. The presence of a POM file in each module root is misleading, I know. These are not intended to allow users to build with Maven. Rather, they contain just the dependency metadata necessary to allow transitive resolution to occur when we publish Spring artifacts to Maven repositories.

@Gregorz, @Dirk – Regarding the choice of Ivy over Maven, stay tuned. There were some compelling reasons, but I'll let the decision makers weigh in with their comments.

@Dirk – The good news is that M2 binaries are available via Maven within the SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository (a Maven2 compliant repo). You can follow the instructions I posted in a comment on the M1 announcement from December. Of course, you'll need to replace references to '3.0.0.M1' with '3.0.0.M2' throughout.

I second Grzegorz. To me the reasoning behind the Ant/Ivy/Maven choice made by the Spring team would be more interesting than Eclipse configuration details.

Brian DeHamer says:
Added on March 5th, 2009 at 12:49 pm

I'm using the M2 binaries from the SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository and am a bit confused by some of the dependencies listed in the pom.xml files. For example, why does the core library have a dependency on "com.springsource.org.apache.commons.logging-1.1.1.jar"? I assume that this is just the plain ol' commons logging library, but why the Spring-specific artifact name? This is causing some problems when building my projects since I have other dependencies that include commons logging (with the more traditional artifact name) and I end-up with duplication JARs in the final build.
Oleg Zhurakousky (blog author) says:

@Brian
It is the same Commons Logging that you are using with one exception. We've modified the binary to include the OSGi MANIFEST headers so it could be used in OSGi environment. Outside of OSGi you can safely treat it as if you downloaded from ASF site.

Using jdk1.6.0_10 and ant-1.7.1 to run the ant build in step 2 (build-spring-framework) I got:

Hi,

I get to build Spring correctly with ant but when I import the projects, eclipse complains about jars not found under IVY_CACHE (commons dbcp, xmlUnit and several others). Am I supposed to copy those manually (sounds weird) or am I missing something?
Chris Beams says:
Added on March 12th, 2009 at 8:17 pm

@Tareq,

I'm up-to-date with the latest sources and working against a clean IVY_CACHE and I don't see any such issues.

What project is complaining?

Check to see that you have $CHECKOUT_ROOT/ivy-cache/repository/org.custommonkey.xmlunit/com.springsource.org.custommonkey.xmlunit/1.2.0/com.springsource.org.custommonkey.xmlunit-1.2.0.jar

If you don't, then rebuild from the command line, minimally with `ant jar`. This will ensure that any missing deps are downloaded by ivy.
Colin Sampaleanu (blog author) says:
Added on March 12th, 2009 at 10:21 pm

One other thing to keep in mind is that this is a real, live, working codebase, and as shocking as it may sound, , it's always possible for something to be accidentally broken. Right now (Mar 12, 8pm PDT) for example, the Eclipse project metadata for the org.springframework.orm project is slightly out of date w/regards to some openjpa and hibernate jars that got upgraded in the ivy definitions already, so importing that project would result in breakage.

For anybody that wants to practice with this build outside of head, as opposed to checking out of svn, you can also download the Spring 3.0 M2 release tarball and build that version, under the "projects" directory.

Colin
Chris Beams says:
Added on March 12th, 2009 at 10:24 pm

Ditto on Colin's comment above, and note that if you want to build something that is certain to adhere to my instructions above, you could simply change the svn checkout URL to https://src.springframework.org/svn/spring-framework/tags/spring-framework-3.0.0.M2 instead of /trunk.

@Harv,

Certain tests in the Spring test suite are performance tests and fail if they don't finish within a particular number of milliseconds. Most of these tests, like the one that failed for you, have methods that end with '…IsFastEnough()'.

Seeing these tests fail doesn't mean that you've done anything wrong per se, but just that your machine wasn't able to run the tests as fast as our development machines and build server do.

You have a couple of options:

1) build the source without running the tests (ant jar)
2) shut down everything on your machine that's consuming significant CPU and try again
3) @Ignore the '…IsFastEnough' tests.

If you're interested in (3), you can use this bash script to add JUnit @Ignore annotations to those methods (assumes you're on a *nix platform):

$SPR_ROOT>$ find . -name *.java | xargs grep -l test.*FastEnough | xargs -Ifile sed -i. 's/public void/@org.junit.Ignore public void/' file

On Leopard, make sure you switch your default JVM to Java 6 by going to Applications -> Utilities -> Java Preferences, then restart your terminal shell.

Joerg,

If you are sure your …/ant/lib dir does not have an old version of Ivy in it, also look inside your ~/.ant/lib directory. I started getting the same build issue actually, and something had actually placed an older version of Ivy there. When I removed the Ivy jar under that home location, the build worked fine.

Thank you Colin,

that was the problem. I found an ivy.jar in ~/.ant/lib. After removing it the build runs as expected. Don't know who placed it there.

Thank you again.

Thanks Chris for the ANT tips!

When I try "ant publish-maven-local" in an environment where mirror of central (a nexus repo manager instance) is configured in maven settings.xml, build error occurs (see [1]). After checking mirror of central repo, I've found only aws 1.2.2 pom file there, and not the jar. When I explicitly (via web browser) requested aws 1.2.2 jar on mirror of central repo it downloaded one from central as expected. If I comment out mirror in my settings.xml, error disappears and build is successful. With no mirror of central defined build downloads not only aws 1.2.2 pom but jar too to local repository, and of course every next build, with or without mirror of central defined, is successful.

It seems like request to "[maven:install-provider] Downloading: org/springframework/aws/spring-aws-maven/1.2.2/spring-aws-maven-1.2.2.jar from central" actually requested something else than what was logged, or the request didn't make it to the mirror of central repo. With aws 1.2.2 jar in mirror of central mirror (after that manual request via browser), I've deleted aws 1.2.2 pom and jar from local repository, and tried build again with mirror of central defined in settings.xml – build broke with same error, it couldn't find the aws 1.2.2 jar.

Maven 2.1.0 is installed on the system.

MAVEN download from the repository decides that the pom file is invalid.

Bamboo is unable to build using ant from the above reference.

And a direct ant call in the build directory runs out of permgen space.

I've been working with Spring for about 3 years now – and have never had this problem.

Chris, could explain how Ivy resolves the dependencies for the spring build, and how new dependencies are added/removed from the project.
I see Ivy is using S3, to store spring dependencies, is there a way to navigate then and see what's there already?

I find this way too much hassle, Chris. The installation procedure is way too complicated, and troublesome to maintain. After all, I don't want to add the Spring Jars to my SVN repository, which I would have to do if I followed your suggestions.

Why can't you just mavenize the whole thing? As long as Spring 3 isn't final, you could provide a dedicated Maven repository.

@Phil,

Sorry if there was confusion here. This post was intended to be instructions for those who actually wish to build Spring from source. If you simply want to compile against Spring 3.0M3, it is available via Maven. Just add the following to your pom:

<repositories> <repository> <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.snapshot</id> <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository - SpringSource Bundle Snapshots</name> <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/snapshot</url> </repository> <repository> <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.milestone</id> <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository - SpringSource Bundle Milestones</name> <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/milestone</url> </repository> <repository> <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.release</id> <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository - SpringSource Bundle Releases</name> <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/release</url> </repository> <repository> <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.external</id> <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository - External Bundle Releases</name> <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/external</url> </repository> </repositories>

As you can see, I've used the 3.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT artifact here in order to grab the latest nightly build. If you want M3, just change that to 3.0.0.M3.

In order to see which artifacts are available, use S3Browse to explore our maven repo: http://s3browse.com/explore/repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/

Issue Fixed:- I turned off the User Access Control on my Vista OS and the Build was successful.

After importing the projects just had some minor build path issues, with IVY varibales pointing to non-existing jars [due to version mismatch], which i solved by pointing to the right jars from the IVY repository. If I remember correctly, those were the groovy, ehcache, jstl, junit jars

Thanks,

In case others are having problems building spring from source in macosx leopard (10.5.8) – (see Steve's post above in this thread)

Eric,

If you're simply looking to compile against the latest in Spring 3, please keep in mind you can just grab the binaries from Maven; there is no need to actually build the sources yourself.

Just add the following to your pom.xml:

<dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>org.springframework.context</artifactId> <version>3.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency>
...
<repositories> <repository> <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.snapshot</id> <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository - SpringSource Snapshot Releases</name> <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/snapshot</url> </repository> <repository> <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.milestone</id> <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository - SpringSource Milestone Releases</name> <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/milestone</url> </repository> <repository> <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.external</id> <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository - External Releases</name> <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/external</url> </repository> </repositories>
Eric J. Van der Velden says:
Added on October 18th, 2009 at 12:44 pm

Hi Chris,

Thanks again, it works. The mistake I had made was that I didn't had included the three repositories. Because when I did
$ mvn publish-maven-local

in ~/.m2/repository there appeared the pom file org.springframework.core-3.0.0.RC1.pom with a dependency with artifactId com.springsource.org.apache.commons.logging .
I thought this was wrong because of com.springsource namespace, but it is okay. Now I can start studying spring by going through the source code with a debugger.

My machine: Win XP Pro. Java6. Ant 1.7. 2G Memory (with about 1.5 G available at run time)

Hi, I hit the following error when building STS from the trunk:

artefact.xml:45: …
common.xml:71:…
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

Total time: 27 minutes …

I guess this is because the memory for PermGen specified in build.properties file is too small:

javadoc.max.memory=256M
test.vm.args=-Xmx1024M -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -XX: HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError

therefore I increased MaxPermSize from 512M to 1024, 1536, 2048, 4096 respectively, but each ends with the same error.

I also tried reducing the other memory size when I increase the MaxPermSize, such as this:

javadoc.max.memory=128M
test.vm.args=-Xmx256M -XX:MaxPermSize=4096M -XX: HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError

But still ends with exactly the same problem

I was wondering if anyone has successfully built the STS from source trunk under windows XP with 2G memory.

Could anyone suggest any clue or give any tip on my problem please?

1. Environmental variable (set for PermSize):
ANT_OPTS=-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xmx512m

2. Changed 2 memory related lines from build.properties file to increase the memory heap for test vm:
javadoc.max.memory=128M
test.vm.args=-Xmx768M -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -XX: HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError

Then after 45minutes of building and testing. I saw the following:

It's crazy, the maven2 build system was not support again within spring 3 and current can't build with maven2. I remember maven2 work good with the initial version of spring3. It take me so long time to build spring3 with ant and finally I have to cancel it. If I may, I strong suggest provide maven2 support for the spring build system.

… I have just downloaded the source release, and it seems that the bootstrap ant script that builds the whole source tree is not bundled with that release. Do I have to check out Spring from Subversion in order to build it? Or is there a "shortcut" to build all the ivy packages in the source release?

Cheers,

Robert.

Hi Bob,

Just so we're on the same page, what exactly did you download? From where?

Checking out from svn will certainly work, but you should be able to build the source dist, too. Let me know, thanks.

@Chris: I downloaded the "… with-dependencies" package from

Chris Beams (blog author) says:
Added on March 3rd, 2010 at 1:22 pm

Bob,

Sorry for the confusion. Starting with Spring 3.0, there is no longer a complete 'with source and dependencies' distribution. There is simply the core zip file containing all Spring jars, and then the '-dependencies' zip containing all third-party dependencies. Thus, no ant buildfiles, etc. If you'd like to build the release from source, simply follow the instructions above, substituting the repository url with https://src.springframework.org/svn/spring-framework/tags/spring-framework-3.0.1.RELEASE-A

I ran into the previous problems with the space, but I fixed those. I was trying to find something on the net for this one (junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: difference exceeds threshold: 109), but no luck. So hopefully someone has some info on this issue.
I was doing the build on Windows XP 1GB Ram and I checked the latest from trunk which I think was Spring 3.0.3.

Thanks for the instructions,

Ok that was an issue due to svn:externals and i was using git-svn so… I had to checkout svn repo too and then symlinked spring-build folder from svn copy to git-svn copy.

You can simply run `ant jar` if you only wish to build and package. Tests will not be run. Also, `ant install-maven` will install those jars into your local .m2 cache.

I had a problem building spring. I couldn't download anything of spring repository using the ant build (that uses ivy and jets3t) because I'm behind a http proxy.

The solution was update the jets3t properties file and change the configuration for proxy based on this document: http://jets3t.s3.amazonaws.com/toolkit/configuration.html#jets3t

The configuration file for this is at {spring-framework-trunk}/spring-build/lib/ivy/jets3t.properties.

httpclient.proxy-port=theproxyport
httpclient.proxy-user=theproxyusername (if necessary)

At last, remember to set the httpclient.proxy-autodetect to 'false', because the defaults is 'true' and when 'true', ignores the rest of the configuration.

if you have any problem while downloading ivy dependencies, use 3browse.springsource.com/browse/

Because ant compile on windows could meet unit test failure, like https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-8245.

Then I want to ignore this unit test. How to type the ant command which could ignore the unit test?

@reddog: if you wish to run all the tests, but simply ignore this one, add JUnit's @Ignore annotation to the test method that's failing. If you simply wish to build the Spring JARs locally and skip running all tests, simply run `ant jar`. It will compile and package the jars, but will not run any tests. Keep in mind that if you're trying to populate a local Maven repository, you can run `ant install-maven`. This will compile the code, package the JARs and copy them into the correct locations within your local ~/.m2/repository cache.

At last the BUILD worked in my MacBookPro (i5 with 4GB in Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with Java 1.6.0_26, Ant 1.8.2 and STS 2.7.1)

I had to declare the environment variable ANT_OPTS with the value '-XX:MaxPermSize=1024m -Xmx1024m'.

The build failed using the ant within the STS, but it succeed from the command line.

Hello:

It worked in my MAC (Snow Leopard, i5 and 4GB) but it didn't in a DELL with windows Vista in Core2Duo with 3 GB (less than 2GB available)

I tried with several values for %ANT_OPTS%, test.vm.args and javadoc.max.memory.

The best attempt was with:

javadoc.max.memory=512M
test.vm.args=-Xmx1024M -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -XX: HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError

C:\>echo %ANT_OPTS%
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Xmx768m

But the BUILD FAILED twice:

1) The first due to:
[junit] junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: Prototype creation took too long: 4024 at org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationProcessorPer
formanceTests.testPrototypeCreationWithOverriddenAutowiredPropertiesIsFastEnough (AnnotationProcessorPerformanceTests.java:148)

I just edited this test and I change the assertTrue value from 4000 to 8000

2) I can't solve the second:

[junit] Testcase: marshalJaxp14StaxResultEventWriter(org.springframework.oxm.jibx.JibxMarshallerTests): Caused an ERROR

Any help with this issue?

It also failed in UBUNTU (10.10 in Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, 2.40GHz and 8GB RAM)

NOTE: at the end it succeed, but allow me to put the steps that I followed to achieve the build.

BESIDES: the import existing project didn't work. It seems STS 2.7.1 in UBUNTU can't read recursively from the root directory.

I imported manually one by one instead. It came out with these two errors:
- Build path is incomplete. Cannot find class file for org/springframework/core/enums/ShortCodedLabeledEnum (ImportXmlWithAopNamespace-context.xml)
/org.springframework.context/src/test/java/org/springframework/context/annotation/configuration line 8 Spring AOP Problem
- Build path is incomplete. Cannot find class file for org/springframework/core/Ordered (ImportXmlWithAopNamespace-context.xml)
/org.springframework.context/src/test/java/org/springframework/context/annotation/configuration line 12 Spring AOP Problem

REGARDING the BUILDING, these were the steps that I followed:

It seems there's something wrong with the images: obtained application/octet-stream instead of image/jpeg.

[junit] Testcase: writeMultipart(org.springframework.http.converter.FormHttpMessageConverterTests): FAILED
[junit] expected: but was:
[junit] junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: expected: but was:
[junit] at org.springframework.http.converter.FormHttpMessageConverterTests.writeMultipart(FormHttpMessageConverterTests.java:154)

I could edit org.springframework.http.converter.FormHttpMessageConverterTests, changing the line 154: assertEquals("image/jpeg", item.getContentType()); but it's not very logical.

I'd rather use the @org.junit.Ignore in the writeMultipart() method.

Then write() in org.springframework.http.converter.ResourceHttpMessageConverterTests failed as well:

[junit] Testcase: write(org.springframework.http.converter.ResourceHttpMessageConverterTests): FAILED
[junit] Invalid content-type expected: but was:
[junit] junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: Invalid content-type expected: but was:
[junit] at org.springframework.http.converter.ResourceHttpMessageConverterTests.write(ResourceHttpMessageConverterTests.java:68)
[junit]

Then, the same error at:

[junit]

I added the @org.junit.Ignore annotation to the multipart() in org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplateIntegrationTests

All the previous classes belong to the org.springframework.web project.

The org.springframework.web project.servlet has the same problem:

[junit] Testsuite: org.springframework.web.servlet.resource.ResourceHttpRequestHandlerTests
[junit] Tests run: 12, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Time elapsed: 0.016 sec

I applied the @org.junit.Ignore annotation to getResourceWithHtmlMediaType() in org.springframework.web.servlet.resource.ResourceHttpRequestHandlerTests

At the end:
BUILD SUCCESSFUL

ACTUALLY: 2 hours and 12 minutes and…

Great post Chris! The instructions were thorough and provide ability to download and build the artifacts.

Couple points.
1) "ant publish-maven-local" does not appear to be a valid target:

BUILD FAILED
Target "publish-maven-local" does not exist in the project "org.springframework.asm".

2) In 'Step 2' of the instructions you reference the new directory structure of the springframework modules. Does this new structure reflect the desired maven artifact directories? In the past, we have referred to spring related dependencies using a GAV=groupId/artifactId/version like 'org.springframework/spring-orm/3.1.0.RC1', so now are we encouraged to use 'org.springframework/org.springframework.orm/3.1.0.RC1'?

@John,

Regarding 'publish-maven-local', thanks for pointing this out. The name of that target changed some time ago. I've updated the post to reflect the new name 'install-maven-central'.

Regarding artifact naming, org.springframework/spring-orm/3.1.0.RC1 is the GAV format used in Maven Central. You'll find that's what gets installed to ~/.m2/repository when you successfully invoke `mvn install-maven-central` as above.

@Chris,

Thanks for the quick response.

Did you mean 'ant install-maven-central' (vs. mvn install-maven-central)?

Hey Chris– great job with the build, very simple procedure!

I had a weird problem where our versioning system (P4) doesn't hold empty directories and the build wouldn't work until I created them. If empty directories are necessary for the build to run, you may want to do a mkdir to make sure they're there. But I suppose it's not a typical problem to have.

Glad to see you are doing so well these days.
