Hi,
In the getting started instructions at
http://avalon.apache.org/excalibur/fortress/getting-started.html they say
that try to get Avalon, Avalon-excalibur, logkit and Jakarta-site from CVS
and try to build those.
First of all is it really necessary to build all those at your end just to run some Hello World example.
And when you hit the download link on the same page it take you to, http://avalon.apache.org/download.cgi where they have link to download Fortress binaries. I downloaded the Excalibur-fortress-latest.zip from there. On extraction it includes an examples.zip so I assumed that it would have some runnable examples that are mentioned on the website. On extraction of examples.zip I got a build.xml.
When I try to run ant to use that build.xml it fails:
collect-jars:
BUILD FAILED file:C:/avalon/excalibur-fortress-1.0/build.xml:53: Cannot resolve path C:\avalon\excalibur-fortress-1.0\..\..\..\avalon\target\lib\avalon-framework .jar
Total time: 1 second
The Merlin binary downloaded from the same page builds perfect with maven and the examples run too, but I have to use fortress ( why ? cause my boss is using fulcrum and it seems to be using fortress big time )
Most of the fulcrum components are now running in Merlin. There are still a couple to go and to deal with these there are updates to Merlin that are needed to to job in an architecturally consistent manner. These changes are well underway within the Merlin 3.4 branch.
Cheers, Stephen.
