Hi, I’m evaluating the 6.5 version and here is what I’ve found.
I was trying 6.5M1 version on Mac and Windows using SVN to share source code.
After .classpath is edited in Windows i have additional symbols (code 13) in the file. Even if library was added and removed from project, the .classpath file is different and is shown as changed and need to be merged.
This could be malicious problem, but it is the reason of one greater problem.
I have project “lib” in the workspace. It is simple Java Project. It has number of libraries in the lib folder and this libraries are exported with exported=”true” in .classpath file. I have Web project that depends on the “lib” project and JARs exported by the “lib” project are placed to WEB-INF/lib folder on deployment.
Unfortunately when the .classpath file of project lib is changed on Windows, it is impossible to deploy projects to Tomcat on Mac and otherwise.
The only workaround is to change the .classpath file on Mac, but anyway I’ll need to do this on Windows back to deploy project to Windows Tomcat.
Looking forward for your updates.
