Hi,
I have another issue with building struts.

The source code does not come with struts-legacy.jar
in contrib/struts-legacy/dist/ directory

But the top level build.xml and build.properties file needs
struts-legacy.jar.

What is the way to do it? Is it a bug in struts released source code?

All the files in contrib/struts-legacy were removed from CVS about 9 months ago.

I don't know exactly why that was done, but I wouldn't think you'd actually need them to compile Struts. They are just provided as a way to provide minimal support to people who rely on Struts to manage their JDBC datasources -- a strategy which is deprecated as these days most servlet containers provide the same functionality better.

If you just need the struts-legacy JAR, you can get it from http://ibiblio.org/maven/struts/jars/

Probably those lines should just be removed from the build.xml and build.properties -- maybe you can do that and report on whether it still builds!
