Rev 935381 (was: no permission for /partymgr, user admin)

[Adrian Crum-2]

I'm forwarding this to the dev list because this is the second time this problem has been encountered in a week.

Rev 935381 changed how the framework loads/includes converter classes. The new method depends on a newer version of ant. Anyone using an older version of ant ends up with an OFBiz installation that won't run.

Should we put the converter class loading back the way it was, or just keep telling users to upgrade to a newer version of ant? Any other suggestions?

Upgrade ant.  ant 1.7.0 places things into META-INF/service, instead
of META-INF/services, which is patently wrong.

The reason that ant is used to create those entries, is so that 'test'
classes can be placed into a separate set of jars, which allows
installations to be made smaller(without including the test classes).
 This also reduces memory utilization in the permgen space, reduces
all classloader/classpath work(catalina comes to mind), etc.

ant 1.7.1 fixes it.

On a side note, I still think we should have two source branches in each component: main and test. That would keep test classes out of the deployment jars.

Also, I noticed that using the -server command line argument increases permgen space automatically.

Cool - thanks!
