BTW, you can run the ant scripts right from Eclipse if you don't like
the command line. Open the top level build.xml and select the ant target
in ourline view. Right click on target and choose "Run as ant build."
You can also configure the Ofbiz to run from Eclipse (Without Ant
script). It is bit more involved and let me know if u really need to know.

Thank you. The eclipse files do work. I had tried them already and it
did not compile. I'm sure i had messed up with them during the import.
Now I feel more comfortable

I am not sure about IntelliJ but Eclipse .project and .classpath
files are in SVN. I generally checkout the OFbiz from SVN as Java
project and it works without any problem.
Advantage of Eclipse could be code completion, nice editor, and
compile time errors in the editor itself as Eclipse uses incremental
compiler. However, you would still need the ant scripts to build and
run the Ofbiz containers.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

I'm not sure that would make sense, as they will have lots of
internal (to my system) modules and dependencies (I depend on
other systems than ofbiz).
Here's what you can do:
1) Create new project (java project) - point this at your module
under ${OFBIZ_HOME}/hot-deploy (I use maven 2, so to start from
scratch I would go to the hot-deploy dir and do a new "mvn
archetype:create" in that dir).
2) for IntelliJ, go to File->New Module, create new Java Module,
import and existing src root, point it at ${OFBIZ_HOME}. 3) in the
ant module for intellij, add the top level build.xml as an ant
build file.
What would you then add in the classpath for your module?
Altough this is helping me a lot I cant't believe that there is no
developer of the core ofbiz using an ide "properly" configured, with
a maintained project file. Is everybody using command line to compile?
