There's actually quite a significant overlap in functionality between Sam's code and the work that I've added to Alexandria which now supports the reporting of build and JUnit testing. In fact I've suffered from the very same classpath issues, but I've just been forking of java tasks to do the builds of other projects. I suspect that they working in very similar ways (XSLT).
For those that are interested I'm just working on updated documentation for the web site. Hopefully I'll have it done in a week or so. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jon Stevens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 27, 2000 9:39 PM Subject: Re: build.classpath and tinderbox builds > on 12/27/2000 1:25 PM, "Sam Ruby" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Jon Stevens wrote: > >> > >> -1.
