:/ You should have spoken up sooner. Please post the logs, and preferably (to me privately) the full logs for 'ant -verbose'. You do have a clean classpath, don't you? > wondering about the junit dependency if one don't want to build test cases > at all, Actually, the junit test compilation step IS separated out (following Carsten's suggestion last week), and junit shouldn't be needed for a normal build. Nor is it if you build each subproject on it's own, but if you build from the root, the junit.jar dep somehow creeps in. Very weird.. possibly an Ant bug. Can be illustrated with 'ant -verbose -f depchecker.xml checkFramework', and examining the "complete build sequence", which includes checkJUnit even though checkFramework has no deps.

If it's not, it's a bug. If it's a bug, we need good bugreports to fix it :) --Jeff > -- > Torsten -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
