hi all,
I found the following problem when compiling the whole cocoon-2.1-dev:
blocks that have no configuration files in their /conf directory result
in no "conf" directory at all in the ${build.blocks}/name directory.
this again results in a NullPointerException in the XConfTool ant task,
since it assumes that the directory exists.
one could solve it by:
a) patching the XConfTool to check if the path realy exists
b) patching the blocks-build.xsl to not only copy all from ${blocks} to
${build.blocks} but also create the conf file manually if there are no
conf files in it.
c) excluding the ant-call to "{$block-name}-patches" from a block which
has no conf files.
I have chosen to use b) - attached see my small patch.
thanks
