I try to build xindice from cvs-checkout, for win98 this seems (not surprisingly) to be broken. I'd want to do it in linux too, but I managed to buy a monitor/graphics adapter combination not supported :-(

ant-bat:
- The current xerces version didn't make it into here.
- The labels checkdbXMLWork and checkdbXML aren't recognized as different (yes, really!), resulting in an endless loop. A workaround could be to rename checkdbXMLWork to checkWorkdbXML
- product renaming didn't get through to this yet. (no bug, just to mention)



I changed these, I'd appreciate if someone could let me know if they actually work now. :-)


What was the intention of putting that much "intelligence" in form of directory-checks into the batchfiles? This isn't done on linux and is mainly an additional pain when debugging batchfiles.

The only thing I can say here is that if you can fix the batch files, please, please do so. :-) None of the core developers use Windows so it's always been a bit of a second class citizen. I would be very happy to see those scripts improved.



At the moment, I'm struggling to tell ant that there is a javac. Micheal (Hearn) how do you build? What modifications did you have to make?


Wouldn't it be better to work with a separate installation of ant?

Tom/Kimbro - I'm willing to help to get the windows build and startup stuff straight.


Excellent! Have at it, this has been a sore spot for a long time. Just send some patches against CVS.


So long
