No, there is no guarantee that they will compile. Firstly I could be in the middle of a checkin in my time zone and the nightly build may checkout an inconsistent set of source. And of course, I do sometimes check in code that will not compile, for a number of reasons, including differences between my environment and that of the nightly build. So, in general, no guarantees that it will compile or, even it does compile, that it will actually work. You should check the build log which is associated with each nightly build. That said, it is rare that ant's nightly build has failed to build. Conor
