DT, I have already tried a half dozen or more times. It would be foolish to try the same thing without changing some set-up. If you have some suggestions, I would be all ears.

What happens is that when I issue a command: sh build.sh -Ddist.dir=/usr/local/ant dist it complains that a bunch of jar files were not built because no files were included. For example: /usr/local/ant/apache-ant-1.7.0/build/lib/ant-apache-regexp.jar According to the instruction on website: Make sure you have downloaded any auxiliary jars required to build tasks you are interested in. These should be added to the lib/optional directory of the source tree. I went and got jakarta-regexp-1.5.tar.gz, gunzip'ed, untar'ed and found a file jakarta-regexp.jar (as well as jakarta-regexp-1.5.jar, which turn out to be the same as the other), and copied it into ..src/lib/optional directory (which didn't exist; so I created it). I tried with 'sh build.sh bla bla' once again, but the result is the same as before, it seems. I have tried to put the jar file into a different lib/optional directories, but the result seems the same through out. I am at wit's end as to how to interpret this instruction (one more time): Make sure you have downloaded any auxiliary jars required to build tasks you are interested in. These should be added to the lib/optional directory of the source tree. I am starting to feel it is a mistake to follow the instruction above to letters. Maybe, instead, I need to provide java source files and the build process will make jar files out of the source code and put them into a destination? Is there somebody out there (I am sure the answer is yes) who have done this and willing to give me a hand, please? I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
