Just to step outside of the Jetspeed project, here is what I do for my own projects. I have similar environments. I basically use Eclipse for editing my own code thanks to its refactoring tools and incremental compilation Then I use ANT for everything else:
a) I use it for packaging the final war's b) I use it to shift my binary dirs to the tomcat folder b) I also use it for a full compilation cycle if needed etc.... The list is endless. I basically use it as an enhancement tool for eclipse in my case, with the benefit that some of the targets are so general that you can use them as deployment builds outside every ide (like a good makefile is supposed to) and some of the targets make only sense in the context of eclipse. But ant is so general you can do almost everything you want to once you have a grasp on it. Also working in teams is much better once you have decent build files. Everyone can use his own tool and the general consencous is the build and all tests have to work and the deployment as well. -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: Glen Carl [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 11. Dezember 2002 22:04 An: Jetspeed Users List Betreff: Re: Build Source Code I created my own build environment, to overlay my changes on the core jetspeed.war. I rarely change the jetspeed.jar, and normally only change it for temp bug fix or to experiment. I believe this what other developers are doing too. I highly recommend that you step through the new tutorial at http://www.bluesunrise.com/jetspeed-docs/JetspeedTutorial.htm .
