The new build system has landed on CVS.

Do a 'cvs update' to get it.

I've done major refactoring of almost everything touched, so things might be a little shaky for a while. I copied the old build into build.old.xml so that I can copy/paste the stuff that is missing in the next days.

I wanted to release early so that you people can play with it.

I'm getting this error when building databases block
databases-compile:
Copying 40 files to C:\Dev\CVSProjects\xml-cocoon2\build\cocoon-2.1-dev\blocks\databases\src

While we're at refactoring the build system, what's the real need for _copying_ the source files before compiling them ? AFAIK, only a few files really need Ant preprocessing : these are the ones that deal with JDBC 2/JDBC 3 incompatibilities.

We could compile all source files in their home location _except_ those that require preprocessing that would follow the current but time-consuming copy process. This would shorten the edit/compile/test cycle and avoid something that happens to me quite often : editing source files in the build directory !

I'm currently lacking time to dive in this stuff now...

Keep up the good work !
