Hi, I have been quietly following discussions on this list for a few weeks, striving to port a little pet app of mine to (preferably) Fortress. Recognizing that the whole Avalon/Excalibur project seems to undergo a complete overhaul (or should this be a permanent situation?;)) I decided on fetching the sources via CVS, the more so since Fortress/Merlin are not yet released. Unfortunately, I got stuck while trying to compile "jakarta-avalon-excalibur". I am not a Java expert, much less an ant expert but I understand that the ant scripts that come with the sources seem to assume a certain directory layout for additionally needed packages etc. I have gambled a bit with the ant.properties file but until now to no avail. The java compiler keeps complaining about missing class definitions, most notably those pertaining to the *.extension.* package. What I did was creating a top-level directory "CVS-Modules" and checking out jakarta-avalon, jakarta-avalon-excalibur and jakarta-avalon-logkit into it, so as to have all required sources neatly combined under one common directory. But this failed to work out as expected. So I would like to know whether there is a better directory layout, or how to adapt the ant.properties file so as to compile Excalibur?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Olaf Olaf Bergner -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
