I have just verified that all of the branches for the currently active JBoss versions build correctly out of the box.
I did however need to make some modifications to the CVSROOT/modules file to make this work correctly and to help prevent future fuckups (probably by me) when changing the structure of a project (which should not other branches a project). To make use of this I have setup 3 new project definitions in CVSROOT/modules: jboss-3.0 - The JBoss 3.0.x project structure definition jboss-3.2 - The JBoss 3.2.x '' jboss-2.4 - The JBoss 2.4.x '' Unfortunately CVS does not allow branch tags (or any tags) to be specified in the module definition, so you must still specific '-r <branch>' on the command line. The above simply specifies the correct structure for the project. For example, to check out the latest JBoss 3.0.x you would: cvs get -r Branch_3_0 jboss-3.0 For JBoss 3.2 you would: cvs get -r Branch_3_2 jboss-3.2 Keep in mind that you should use the correct project definition even when checking out non-branch tags as well. 'jboss-all' is still the HEAD branch. I think that we should eventually change this name to 'jboss' or 'jboss-head', since it does not really contain 'all' of the modules anymore. But this can wait until later. I am currently working on making the JBoss 2.4 project independent of other structure changes, but I have not completed it yet. The current branch will build as it did before; I have changed nothing that would affect that. * * * I am really sorry about the mess I created last night. I don't know why, but I had convinced myself that the other branches would work fine. Before I stopped for the evening I thought about that issue for a bit and decided things were okay. Anyways, I am really sorry for the trouble. I hope to avoid such messes in the future. Your humble build system slave (AKA.
