[pde-dev] org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: BUILD FAILED

["Prasanna Veeramani" <prasanna.veeramani@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

I am working on my first Eclipse Plug-in Project.

 

Objective: I am trying to execute a target of ANT build file from Created Menu Item Action using Eclipse Plug-in Project.

 

Approach:  Inside the method using AntRunner Class I am trying to call the external build file to run the default target.

 

public void run(IAction action) {

Bundle bundle = Platform.getBundle("com.test.eclipse.plugins.testbuild");

            Path path = new Path("/resource/test-build.xml");

            URL buildFileURL = Platform.find(bundle, path);

 

            AntRunner runner = null;

            if(buildFileURL != null) {

                runner = new AntRunner();

                try {

                    runner.setBuildFileLocation(Platform.asLocalURL(buildFileURL).toExternalForm());

                }

                catch (IOException e) {

                    e.printStackTrace();

                }

                runner.setArguments("-Dmessage=Building -verbose");

                runner.addBuildLogger(ANT_LOGGER_CLASS);

            }

 

            try {

              runner.run();

            }

            catch (CoreException e) {

                e.printStackTrace();

            }

            catch (Exception e) {

                e.printStackTrace();

            }

 

Exception: I am getting the following exception

org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: BUILD FAILED

      at org.eclipse.ant.core.AntRunner.run(AntRunner.java:387)

      at org.eclipse.ant.core.AntRunner.run(AntRunner.java:474)

 

Verified: The above program locates the build file properly but when it tries to execute it throws the CoreException.

 

Note: The test build file I tried works fine independently.

 

Any thoughts/help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks
