Yes, that is the purpose of the build definition. If you look at the synchronize method it actually does the following when executed at the top level. 1) Synchronize the main build project (from cvs) 2) Reinvoke ant to pick up any new build.xml downloaded from cvs 3) Do the same for each component (including checking out any new components that may have appeared in the build definition) With the current JBoss build, any new modules or thirdparty jars requires the developer to look at CVSROOT/modules then go to the relevent directory and do a "cvs co" or blow away the whole thing and check out from scratch.
