RE: building tomcat source in eclipse
Ant is at ant.apache.org. download is just a target. Read up on ant to understand more. They have mailing lists there. Doing it in eclipse...I don't think this is an eclipse list. Look at the eclipse documentation in the help about ant and if you have trouble there are many great eclipse forums out there(I have used them myself) Thanks, dean -Original Message- From: Chris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 13, 2004 1:58 PM To: Tomcat Developers List Subject: Re: building tomcat source in eclipse The trick is to get all dependencies.

SWEEEEET....thankyou thankyou thankyou
My god, that was so much easier. I couldn't thank you enough for the .classpath/.project files. Only took an hour to change the classpath stuff to my machine(as eclipse uses absolute paths and I have it checked out to a different directory).

There are lots of optional things that don't get built if you don't set the appropriate option - AFAIR mail.jar is one of these. I wouldn't even bother trying to build Tomcat directly in Eclipse. The best you can hope for is to call the ant script from Eclipse. I'll send you the eclipse files directly - the apache mailing server won't accept zips.

Digester
This Digester for parsing xml looks kind of interesting. It kind of reminds me of xsd's. I am curious why not just use an xsd and JAXB tool to generate your objects. Of course, I assume this was done long before xsd's were even around. Maybe the reason is just that. I am also wondering if there are other advantages over using JAXB with this Digester stuff. Looks kind of neat either way. Thanks, dean
tomcat build broken with strange javac error(never seen this one before)

both jdk1.5 and jdk1.4 needed to build tomcat????
I for some reason needed 1.4jdk and 1.5jdk to build tomcat. My steps are below. Any help would be appreciated as to how I can correct this Using jdk1.5 and Filip's great list of steps(thanks Filip, the list made life easier, and I am almost there) I go through the list to build tomcat 1. cvs co jakarta-tomcat-5 works great 2. cd jakarta-tomcat-5 obviously works 3. ant update works great 4. ant download breaks, and looks like 1.5 problems, so I switch to 1.4 and it works!!!. Basically the tomcat-deps module is not compiling in 1.5 as it conflicts with many different things. 5. ant dist sticking with 1.4 doesn't work, and going to 1.5 doesn't work. So now, I am basically stuck again on Jakarta-tomcat-5/build/classes not compiling at all. I am not sure where to go. I am trying to think what are the possibilities of what is wrong. 1. I need to do some configuration which I haven't done. 2. Builds currently don't work if starting from scratch as something was modified on accident? 3. they do work if you already had everything downloaded? I followed the steps above twice. I don't suppose having to switch between 1.4 and 1.5 makes my situation easier to debug, as that could be part of my problem too. Don't suppose someone just wants to send me a zipped up version of their view that builds?? I would like to fix this and will continue to look at the problem, but I am not really sure where to start so it may take me some time as I jump into all this.
