I think I discovered one of my build problems. In one of the build properties files, it requires that I have tomcat installed and a CATALINA_HOME variable on my system path. Is this the case? Ant said that my build was successful, but I didn't see any JUNIT tests getting run on the code.
Yes, you need CATALINA_HOME set for the automatic deploy/undeploy feature. Seems, like our build files need some tidy up... :-(
Also, where does it create this WEB-INF directory? I didn't supply Ant any information about my tomcat install or about my project install. Will it just build this directory under the MyFaces tree, and then I can move it out as necessary?
Files are copied into the \webapps\examples\web\WEB-INF dir, so that you can configure the \webapps\examples\web as content root in Tomcat directly.

Regarding the tld issue: In /build/develop you find an ant build file with the target "prepare-for-debug". It does the following: - copies needed libs to WEB-INF/lib - copies develop-web.xml and faces-config.xml to WEB-INF - resolves the entities in the TLDs and copies TLDs to WEB-INF/lib
Just call this target after each build.
There is also a "compile-for-debug" that additionally compiles all MyFaces classes to WEB-INF/classes. I have not used this for long, so I don't know if it works and if all needed libs are referenced. Just give it a try.

+1 on including every jar in the full distribution...
debugging in IntelliJ works perfectly fine for me, your problem sounds as if you would use source-files which do not match the respective class files... have you checked if you maybe got several myfaces jars on the class-path?

Ok, I finally got ant to run all the way through on the source build. Is there some way that we could include all of the required jars in the lib directory? I'm talking specifically about the catalina-ant.jar. I don't run tomcat (I run WSAD), so I don't have the tomcat jars in my classpath by default.
It seems like it would just be easier if the source came packaged with everything it needed to do a full build assuming that there was a correct Ant install on the machine. (For windows, that means just having the ant scripts in your path and the ant lib and java tools.jar in your classpath).

Yes, if I attach the source folder for myfaces classes, I'm able to step through the code.

But I mean are you actually using the eclipse debugger to step through code?

When testing the new component on a page, I'm simply

Maybe not the most optimized way, but works for now. And

combination of a

it a link

I'm working on doing the same thing. I have a project
that has the
MyFaces source in it, but I can't create a web-project
and have the
web project use the MyFaces code. it has problems finding the tld's. How did you get around this problem?

I'm using WSAD. What source did you attach to your jars?
I'm attaching all the jars to the
MyFaces-1.0.7-SRC/src directory.
It seems to find some things ok, but it sometimes interprets step-into's and step-overs as a 'play' call.

From: Heath Borders-Wing [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Building/Debugging MyFaces I'm using Ant
to build
MyFaces and it builds the 3 jars
just fine,
however, it always fails when it gets to the javadoc.
Mine builds javadoc too just fine, but fails on class org.apache.catalina.ant.ReloadTask cannot be found - if I
don't have
catalina-ant.jar anywhere in the classpath or in
$ANT_HOME/lib.
Additionally, I have never been able to easily debug
through MyFaces
code. That is, occassionally, my debugger will enter a
method, but
the line numbers will be off. This makes using the
debugger in
these methods useless. Is the standard MyFaces build
building
without line numbers?
Sorry, can't help there. I'm using Eclipse and have no problems debugging it.
