Folks, I am finding it difficult to complete the setup necessary to build excalibur from scratch. And I am not a newbie.
Given that ant.properties is reuired in a number of places (or at least the properties they define are), I though the following may be useful if added to pertinent places of the build files : Index: build.xml =================================================================== RCS file: /home/cvs/jakarta-avalon-excalibur/all/build.xml,v retrieving revision 1.118 diff -r1.118 build.xml 195c195,199 < <target name="check-datasource" depends="check-environment" if="datasource.present"> --- > <target name="check-ant-properties" unless="excalibur-collections.home"> > <fail message="You need an ant.properties to build excalibur. Either one in your home dir, or one the jakarta-avalon-excalibur/all dir. There is an ant.properties.sample that can be copied for this need."/> > </target> > > <target name="check-datasource" depends="check-environment, check-ant-properties" if="datasource.present"> Note that it is checking for a single property from each build file and not the presence of the local build file...
