This post is for general information for people who are rebuilding turbine
and working on the source code. It applies specifically to the patch I
submitted yesterday entitled '[PATCH] Changes Screen building to use
Template pattern'.

As far as I can determine, since turbine uses dynamic loading of classes,
sometimes Java and the Ant build system have a tough time of figuring out
which files to rebuild. This seems like an inherent problem with the type
of class loading used in Turbine (although I wouldn't change that way of
doing things :) ).

The solution is to watch out for this and manually remove the
turbine/bin/src and turbine/bin/classes directories when changing methods
on classes that are loaded dynamically. Specifically one needs to do this
with the patch I submitted.

Has anyone else seen this problem? Any other better solution? Is my Java
system defective? Anyone try my patch on not have success?
