I have my own project http://dvbcentral.sf.net with a bit non-standard NetBeans platform. I have recently updated it to recent dev build and found out that specifying <test-dependencies> is somehow broken. I cannot depend on sendopts - which is a module from my platform, but from a bit strange location - the module is in dvbcentral cluster... Please help me found what is wrong.
Created attachment 32581 [details] ZIP file with sources
1. unzip the sources ZIP file 2. go to sources directory 3. type ant build - this will try to checkout sources from cvs.netbeans.org - so run with runsocks or somehow make sure the CVS server is accessible 4. the build will fail, but in module dvbcentral/file 5. nevermind, open dvbcentral/app in NetBeans 6. run tests for the project The test will fail, because sendopts module never appears on classpath, although there is a runtime dependency from the module as well as from the test-dependencies.
I guess I found the real cause of the problem which was that the sendopts module depended on org.netbeans.bootstrap and not org.netbeans.bootstrap/1 Still the problem is valid usecase as in such case the classpath building shall fail with some message.
Thanks for good catch. BuildException is thrown when ModuleListParser didn't find entry for code name base.
