* What is the status of ob-ditaa?

Greetings.

I just tried to export an org file with bunch of ditaa images and got
the infamous error:

Error: Unable to initialize main class org.stathissideris.ascii2image.core.CommandLineConverter
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/cli/ParseException

This is under Fedora 40 with org 9.6.15. I do have ditaa.jar, but from
the looks of the shell script /usr/bin/ditaa that runs the jar it needs
to be run differently than what ob-ditaa does at the moment.

In the past I think this was solved by downloading a contrib version of
ditaa.jar. Now I can not find this under org contrib.

https://github.com/emacsmirror/org-contrib

Is there a working solution?

All the best,

Jarmo

ditaa works for me, using Org mode version 9.8-pre
(release_9.7.14-156-g1c9873). Would you like me to email you my version
of ditaa.jar? I'm on Debian 9.13 (it's old but it works).

Best wishes,

Colin Baxter.

Greetings Colin.

Can you post both

- your location of ditaa.jar; mine is

  $ locate ditaa.jar
  /usr/share/java/ditaa.jar

  (this will tell me something about where your jar file came from)

- the contents of your jar; the first couple of files in mine are

  $ jar -tf `locate ditaa.jar` | head -10
  META-INF/
  META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
  org/
  org/stathissideris/
  org/stathissideris/ascii2image/
  org/stathissideris/ascii2image/core/
  org/stathissideris/ascii2image/graphics/
  org/stathissideris/ascii2image/text/
  org/stathissideris/ascii2image/core/CommandLineConverter.class
  org/stathissideris/ascii2image/core/ConfigurationParser$XMLHandler.class

I think I saw somewhere a request to rewrite ob-ditaa.el. Unfortunately
my calendar looks awful atm, we should do something about this.

All the best,

Jarmo

Mine is at ~/local/bin/jar/ditaa.jar, not in $PATH but called via the
variable: (setq org-ditaa-jar-path "~/local/bin/jar/ditaa.jar")

So this is likely to be the contrib jar that was floating around (also
in my previous computer) when I last exported some ditaa
drawings. Thanks for sending the file, it will come to the rescue if
need be.

I have decided to try to write a patch for ob-ditaa which will hopefully
resolve this issue of mismatch between what ob-ditaa expects and what
out-of-the-box systems provide.

All the best,

Jarmo
