Hi peeps,

it took a few hours but I've got excalibur to build properly.

cvs -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs co -P \
jakarta-avalon jakarta-avalon-excalibur \
jakarta-avalon-logkit jakarta-site \
avalon-sandbox jakarta-avalon-cornerstone \
jakarta-avalon-phoenix jakarta-avalon-site; \
cd jakarta-avalon; \
ant; \
cd ../jakarta-avalon-logkit; \
ant; \
cd ../jakarta-avalon-excalibur; \
ant dist;

takes about half an hour (athlon xp 1900 and 100mbit network), but it works. It is now also possible to build using a different starting directory, ie

cd jakarta-avalon-excalibur
ant -f zip/build.xml dist

now works (again). It is quite clear now that pure ant as a build system is failing us though (it is all quite fragile). There's also ample room for improvement of the build in many places. However, I'm hoping/expecting that excalibur will be building using gump again.

Everyone, it'd be nice if things could be double-checked and verified. In particular, I had to hack some unit tests to get various dist targets up to speed. CVS hold all the info.

Let's try and stop being the gump problem child, shall we?

cheers,

- Leo
