You need to create a build.properties file in the trunk directory, if
you haven't already done so, that contains something like:
river.home=/opt/src/river/trunk
log.config=/home/peter/logging.properties
debug=true
debuglevel=lines,source,vars
run.tests=com/sun/jini/test/impl/start/ServiceStarterCreateBadTransientServiceTest.td
I tend to use an IDE to edit, refactor methods etc, but for compiling,
running tests and debugging, I use the command line.
But some tips would be to import libraries for ant and junit in the IDE,
and make sure the qa tests can see the jar files in trunk/lib
Hope this helps a little.
Cheers,
Peter.

Hi guys,
I've done a fresh check out and I'm trying to retrace all my steps on
how to get a River development setup ready. Sadly, I'm failing on a
few steps. Can anyone refresh my brain?
- Compiler Errors in the IDE
In Eclipse I have to create a new JDK 1.5 system library which doesn't
have any restrictions on the rt.jar. This is fine, but I get the
following compiler errors in the IDE (note: building River via Ant
works fine, so I suspect this to be just an IDE issue.)
1. com.sun.jini.tool.ClassServer complains the IOException doesn't
have a IOException(String,Throwable) constructor. Which it doesn't in
Java 5, but it does in 6. I thought we were staying in JDK 5 for now?
2. test/src/net.jini.core.event.RemoteEventTest complains about
MarshalledObject not being generic. Again this is a 1.5 vs 1.6
problem.
- Cannot run the QA tests
I can run the QA tests by browsing to $RIVER_HOME and executing "ant qa.run"
But I can't run all the tests (or specific ones) from the qa
directory. I.e. browsing to $RIVER_HOME/qa and executing "ant
harness-runtime run-tests -Drun.tests=all" gives me the following
error:
run-tests:

(This is where I own up to never having had the patience to run all
the QA tests before...)
- Cannot run the jtreg tests
I can't run all the tests (or specific ones) from the qa directory.
I.e. browsing to $RIVER_HOME/qa and executing "ant jtreg-teardown
jtreg" gives me the following error:

<snip more of the same>
This is where I own up (again) to not having tried the jtreg tests
myself for more than a year...
Can anyone point out my obvious mistakes? Then I can write up the
right way to do it and get it on the website.
Cheers,
Tom
