You're a brave man :-). You have to have an eclipse properly set up in order to use the scripts, but that is easy. Basically just download eclipse unzip it. Then download the extras pack from us unzip that overtop of the eclipse install. Last step is to download the RCP Delta pack from eclipse and unzip over eclipse. Now you should be able to build.

Eclipse 3.1.2 (Windows): http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ download.php?file=/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.1.2-200601181600/ eclipse-SDK-3.1.2-win32.zip
Extras pack:  http://udig.refractions.net/downloads/extras-1.zip
RCP Delta Pack: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/ R-3.1.2-200601181600/download.php?dropFile=eclipse-RCP-3.1.2-delta- pack.zip

Hi Folks,

I'm attempting to build uDig using Ant, rather than from the eclipse PDE.
I'm new to eclipse, and more comfortable with Ant for now.

I'm following (mostly) the uDig nightly build instructions at:

  http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/UDIG/Nightly+Build

I've found a couple of things:

1) it seems I had to copy the file "svntask.properties" from the "scripts-deprecated" directory into the "scripts" directory to get svn to work. But that part worked fine afterward.

2) But when I run

   ant -d -f run.xml -Dnoclean=true

I eventually run into a consistent error finding a certain plugin:

build:
[java] Executing '/usr/local/jdk1.5.0_06/jre/bin/java' with arguments:
     [java] '-classpath'
     [java] '/usr/local/eclipse/startup.jar'
     [java] 'org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main'
     [java] '-application'
     [java] 'org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner'
     [java] '-buildfile'
     [java] 'build.xml'
     [java] '-Dbuilder=.'
