Can I add a Java Project reference instead of a library

Michael — Thu, 27 Oct 2016 08:34:12 -0400

Is it possible to add a Java Project as project reference to the Java Build Path? Adding a project as a library works fine. Adding a Project as Project reference results in a ClassNotFoundException.

I also tried to add it to the packaging structure but still have the ClassNotFoundException.

Project Build Plugin UTF-8 Encoding

Michael — Fri, 23 Sep 2016 11:27:38 -0400

Is there a setting for the source encoding in the Project Build Plugin? Changing the default encoding (windows-1252) to UTF-8 results in a wrong class file.

For example the following class

public class Test {
    private String test = "Hans im Glück";
}

results in the following class file

....
Hans im GlÃƒÂ¼ck
....

Compiling in the Designer results in the correct

...
"Hans im GlÃ¼ck"
...

Use of Connection Pool

Michael — Thu, 10 Mar 2016 09:17:17 -0500

Is it possible to use the connection pool from ivy in a Java class?

I currently reading the database configuration with : Ivy.wfCase().getApplication().findExternalDatabaseConfiguration("myDB")

and open the configuration with: ch.ivyteam.db.jdbc.DatabaseUtil.openConnection(dbConf) ch.ivyteam.db.jdbc.DatabaseUtil.DatabaseUtil.closeConnection(conn);

With this approach it doesn't use the pooled connections like in an ivy database step.

Checkstyle Plugin (Sourcecode Analyzer for Ivy Designer)

Michael — Tue, 29 Sep 2015 11:19:07 -0400

I installed the Checkstyle Plugin (Version 6.9.0.201508291549) for the Ivy Designer 5.1.7. Installation works fine when removing the "Contact all update sites...." flag.

Now I have the Problem that it sometimes work and sometimes I get the following error:

org.dom4j.DocumentFactory cannot be cast to org.dom4j.DocumentFactory Image?

For me it seems it has a conflict with another library. Depending on which library is loaded first it works.

Any idea what causes the problem? Or is there another source code analyzer that works with the Ivy Designer?
