Hi Jon,
 If you try mvn install war:war you might have better results.  Install
should compile/test/package the code, and war:war should re-package it as a
web-archive.

 Let us know how it goes.

BUT, I think I've worked out what the problem may be. When you run "mvn
war:war" it doesn't actually compile the .java files, does it? I assumed
that it did, and that the Maven file was acting as a replacement for an
ant build file..

I've downloaded the Maven plugin for Eclipse (I'm unfamiliar with
Maven), but the Flash tutorial (here: http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/)
refuses to play for some reason in either IE or Firefox, on my machine.

I have no idea how to build the "book" project inside of Eclipse. After
installing the Maven/Eclipse plugin there do not appear to be any
additional menu options, and the pom.xml file is simply a plain old xml
file, without any form of special icon or additional options. There is a
guide here:

http://radio.weblogs.com/0112098/stories/2003/02/12/usingEclipseAndMaven
.html

But its pretty vague, and its not clear exactly where/how I set
"maven.eclipse.workspace"...can anyone help with this?

May I just say, it should not be this hard for Codehaus/xfire newbies to
get a basic application working. Someone should seriously think about
improving the Quick Start instructions/the distribution... A tutorial
using Ant instead of Maven would be useful, and an Ant build file in the
distribution that actually compiles and builds all the examples when run
would be inline with a fairly undemanding set of expectations.

Cheers

Jon

Looks like you don't have CheckVersionHandler class in classpath.
