Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    
    USERS AFFECTED:
    All users of App Connect Enterprise using the ibmint command to
    package Java resources into a bar file.
    
    
    Platforms affected:
    AIX, LinuxZ64, LinuxX64, LinuxPPCLE64, WinX64
    
    ****************************************************************
    
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    When using the ibmint command with the --project flag to package
    
    Java resources into a BAR file, the command may fail with a
    BIP2113E error if the .classpath file contains tags such as
    <attribute>, <attributes>, or the output attribute within a
    <classpathentry> element, as shown below:
    
    1. <attributes> and
    <attribute> tags
    2. <classpathentry kind="src" output="bin"
    path="src">
    
    This issue might occur during the Java project
    compilation and .classpath file parsing, resulting in the
    following BIP2113E error messages:
    BIP2113E: IBM App Connect
    Enterprise internal error: diagnostic information 'Invalid
    classpath descriptor', '5', 'output'
    BIP2113E: IBM App Connect
    Enterprise internal error: diagnostic information 'Invalid
    classpath descriptor', '5', 'attributes'
    

Problem conclusion

  • The product has been modified such that the ibmint command now
    successfully compiles a Java project if the .classpath file
    contains the <attribute> and <attributes> tags or when an output
    
    tag accompanies the kind tag inside the <classpathentry>
    element.
