Here is how to build from CVS: 1) Download and install Ant 1.5 beta 2) Get the xdoclet-all module from CVS 3) Cd to xdoclet and execute ant.
(You'll probably get an OutOfMemoryError. If you do, just build again and it should go through). You should also read xdoclet/readme_ant15_jdk13.txt If you run into problems, do not hesitate to ask on this list. We're currently lacking a good build howto, and any feedback is most welcome. If you succeed, it would be nice if you could resubmit your patch against the current CVS version of the file. The file has probably undergone other changes in CVS than yours since 1.2 (which I suppose is the version your patch is against). That makes it pretty hard for us to apply your patch. Besides, the file has moved and the extension has changed to .xdt (XDoclet Template) Here is what you should do: 1) Verify if the problem persists in CVS HEAD 2) If yes on 1) -> submit a patch (as a diff) to the patches page on SF. Email in my personal mailbox gets lost/forgotten, patch tracker items don't. Submitting a diff instead of an entire file makes it possible for us to see what you have changed. We need to know that in order to judge whether your patch is "good" or "bad".
