How does this help novice users? Novice users are just as likely to go to lucene/ or solr, and only run ant clean test from there. I imagine solr contributors don't generally run the lucene tests... why would they if they arent changing it? If they do this, no clean-jars will happen when they run clean. But working on lucene its a must to run all of them, because you might break something in solr. This is why i got used to running this stuff from the top level. -- lucidimagination.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
