Hi, Donglai, It seems the ptolemy and kepler you downloaded are not source code. Instead, they are release packages. Please check the following documentations for how to checkout ptolemy and kepler source code.
ptolemy source code http://cvs.ecoinformatics.org/cvs/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/kepler/INSTALL?content-type=text/plain kepler source code http://www.kepler-project.org/Wiki.jsp?page=DevelopmentForKepler Actually you don't need to re-build Kepler if you just want to use Kepler as it is -- not adding any new actors or features. Source code is not required for Kepler release.

First, I have downloaded the source code and untared the ptII5.0.1.src.tar.gz to /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1 direcotry. And then I have downloaded the source code of the Kepler and saved under /home/dlzhang/kepler and under this directory there is a README.txt file and the file shows "Version: 1.0.0beta1". I also set KEPLER to /home/dlzhang/kepler and PTII to /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1. As I entered $KEPLER and use "ant full-clean ptolemy buildkarlib run-dev", it always tells me that : +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "[dlzhang at ristretto kepler-1.0.0beta2]$ ant full-clean ptolemy buildkarlib run-dev Buildfile: build.xml ptolemy-clean: config: init: clean: [delete] Deleting directory /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build preinit: [echo] ant is using JDK version: 1.4 checkOS: win.prep: lin.prep: [echo] Guessing that you are running: Unix init: clean: clean-kar: full-clean: ptolemy: config: init: prepare: [mkdir] Created dir: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build [mkdir] Created dir: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build/src [mkdir] Created dir: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build/classes [mkdir] Created dir: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build/docs/codeDoc [mkdir] Created dir: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build/tmp [mkdir] Created dir: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build/doc/doc [mkdir] Created dir: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/build/classes/ptolemy/distributed/config BUILD FAILED /home/dlzhang/downloads/kepler/kepler-1.0.0beta2/build.xml:745: The following error occurred while executing this line: /home/dlzhang/downloads/kepler/kepler-1.0.0beta2/build-ptolemy.xml:106: /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/ptolemy/distributed/config not found.

Actually, there is no "distribued" directory under the /home/dlzhang/ptII5.0.1/ directory. Would you please give some ideas what's wrong there?
