JMeter 3.2 source not compiling

Question

I try to work with JMeter 3.2 source but it's not compiling, It was missing mainly Bouncy Castle jars I added jars but still getting an error:

SMIMEAssertion.java include constructor SMIMESignedParser(BcDigestCalculatorProvider, MimeMultipart) which doesn't exists in JMeter's lib, Code failing:

s = new SMIMESignedParser(new BcDigestCalculatorProvider(), multipart);

s = new SMIMESignedParser(new BcDigestCalculatorProvider(), msg);

I added different jars of Bouncy Castle as latest bcprov-jdk15on-158.jar to older versions bcmail-jdk14-1.46.jar or others as bcpkix-jdk15on-1.55 or bcmail-jdk15-140.jar but still failed to compile

Does anyone knows the correct jars to add?

Answer 1

JMeter uses "ant" to build.

Based on https://github.com/apache/jmeter it looks like they use Travis to build and test (probably on Github).

Based on

before_script:
  - test "x$RUN_CHECKSTYLE" != 'x' || ant -Djava.awt.headless=true download_jars install

(https://github.com/apache/jmeter/blob/trunk/.travis.yml)

it appears that you should run

ant download_jars

to get the jars you need. Locate them and add them to your build path.

(And this stuff is exactly why projects are typically migrating to Maven)

Full explanation for building is here:

A PR of migration to maven is available and should be merged after 3.3 release.
