Best Groovy/Java versions for GPars build?

[Alan Thompson]

Hi - Just forked GPars and tried to build on Cygwin.  Got a bunch of errors and am wondering if my Groovy/Java versions are to blame:

~/github/gpars > gradlew
:buildSrc:compileJava UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:compileGroovy UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:processResources UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:classes UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:jar UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:assemble UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:compileTestJava UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:compileTestGroovy UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:processTestResources UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:testClasses UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:test UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:check UP-TO-DATE
:buildSrc:build UP-TO-DATE
:compileJava UP-TO-DATE
:compileGroovywarning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.6
C:\cygwin\home\alathompson\github\gpars\src\main\groovy\groovyx\gpars\util\AsyncFunASTTransformation.java:50: error: unmappable character for encoding Cp1252
 * @author Dinko Srko▒?
                      ^
C:\cygwin\home\alathompson\github\gpars\src\main\groovy\groovyx\gpars\extra166y\CustomConcurrentHashMap.java:9: warning: Unsafe is internal proprietary API and may be removed in a future release
import sun.misc.Unsafe;
               ^

......etc.   I'm currently configured as:

~/github/gpars > groovy --version

Groovy Version: 2.1.0-beta-1 JVM: 1.7.0_09 Vendor: Oracle Corporation OS: Windows 7

What is the best config for building GPars?

Thanks,

Alan Thompson

This is because the source is UTF-8 encoded and your environment sets a
different encoding.  In the itnerim can you set you environment to
UTF-8.  Also add a JIRA issue to the GPars issue set to get the build to
forcibly set the encoding.

This one is here to stay, exactly because Unsafe is unsafe. But it is
only a warning so won't stop the build. If you need a warning free build
we will have to do some hacking around.

I've never had to change the encoding....How is that done?

Given that you are on Windows, I'm afraid I haven't a clue.

I think you probably need to hassle me to fix this in the mainline
master so we have a platform agnostic solution.
