Description:
While compiling MySql Gui Common, the build ended due to a missing prerequisite.  However, configure had succeeded.  Here is the end of the build output:

Failed to make Gui Common

Note the last line is output from my script indicating what phase of the build failed.

How to repeat:
See attached config.log for the configure parameters.  I do not have Connector/J installed.

Suggested fix:
If 'lib/mysql-connector-java-3.1.11a-bin.jar' is truly required to build with these configure options, configure should ensure that it is present.  This should have failed at the configure stage.

If the library is required for an optional component, then that component should not be built when the library is not present, and then build will succeed, but without such optional component.

Config.log from failed build

Attachment: config.log (text/x-log), 50.46 KiB.

The directory mysql-gui-tools-5.0r8/mysql-gui-common/source/java/lib
contains the file mysql-connector-java-5.0.4-bin.jar.

So it seems likely that the problem is the wrong version of the file has been packaged in the tarball rather than a bad check in configure as I originally thought.

Thank you for a problem report. Please, try to repeat with a newer version, from GUI Tools 5.0r9, and inform about the results.

Gui common of 5.0r9 successfully compiled with Java support.
I am closing the bug.
Thanks.
