Compile errors

Post by J. Scott Elblein »

I haven't used FB for a while, and now for some reason the portable Windows install of FB stopped fetching the mediainfo data when renaming files, and I noticed there was a newer version, so, figured for shuts n grins, I'd play with compiling it myself, and maybe trying to customize the GUI a bit (move some buttons around, etc.). I've never spent a whole lot of time in the java coding world, so I'm not real familiar with the tools, and so on.

I installed Chocolatey, then via it, install ant, gradle, maven, groovy, etc., and cloned the latest repo from GH. When I run the command 'ant' in the root folder, I get what looks like dependency errors(?), and also a strange error about an older javac compiler version (I have the latest version of the JDK installed). Any idea what these are/how to resolve them?

BUILD FAILED
C:\Coding\Projects\FileBot\build.xml:231: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.

Total time: 21 seconds
I've already run 'ant resolve' and it downloaded/installed a bunch of stuff, and the above errors are still the result. For the record, I'm compiling this on a Win 10 x64 VM machine.

TIA

FileBot usually requires the latest Java, which is currently Java 10. The errors indicate that you're using and older release of Java.

:idea: Note that custom builds are only feasible for offline functionality, as you'd need to create your own server-side infrastructure and apply for your own API keys for all the online functionality.

:arrow: I recommend just using one of the new official builds: https://get.filebot.net/filebot/

:?

I was thinking I'd play with he GUI a bit; I've always kinda wanted the buttons in different places than they are, and some other tweaks, and then grab a license, and use it with my 'tweaked' build.

You might need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable as well. ant is probably using Java 8 for some reason.

ant -diagnostics will tell you what version of Java and other libraries it's working with:

Code: Select all

ant -diagnostics

That did it. I had JAVA_HOME pointing to the older version of JDK. Builds like a charm now. :D

If I can get the gist of everything I may or may not submit some pull requests. :P

You'd be the first, or the second at the very least. :lol:
