From a clean install of RC2 and an empty local repo...
I tried a selection of the samples in the binary distro using ant scripts. All OK I built the source distiribution. It took a loooong time (3 hours!) to get through it all told. In my case this seemed to be primarily that the repo hosting EMF resources was on a go slow and the build failed and I stopped the build thinking it had frozen a couple of times. Finaly got it to go right through and it was clean. Not a great experience for the user but nothing to do with RC2. +1 for releasing it Earlier in this thread problems were reported running the ant scripts in the source distribtion. This is working as designed. The ant scripts will not work in the source disitribution as the manifest jar that they depend on is not available. It is assumed that the use who downloads the source distribution will do a maven build (in fact they have to do a maven build). We could consider adding ant build capability to the samples in the src distro but I think this can wait for future releases. Simon
