Thanks for the quick response! Well, I'm not too worried about rebuilding Jena from SVN, but I am already using ant. When you say "avoid the config file and use … to give a repeatable build step", you just mean using something where the configuration can be specified as command line options (without having to retype them every time), right? Since I'm already set up with ant on this project, I think adding the command line options there will be the simplest option for now. If I get some time later on, though, I'll look into rebuilding from SVN. > Thanks for spotting and reporting the problem, and apologies for the > inconvenience! Thanks again for the quick response, and any inconvenience is easily outweighed by the convenience of not having to create "schema classes" by hand! -- Joshua Taylor, http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~tayloj/
