Compile lucene

Hi

Im trying to Compile Lucene but am encountering the following error on typing ant from the root of Lucene-1.4.3



C:\lucene-1.4.3>ant
Buildfile: build.xml

init:

compile-core:

BUILD FAILED
C:\lucene-1.4.3\build.xml:140: srcdir "C:\lucene-1.4.3\src\java" does not e=
xist!


I've installed a jdk and ant successfully and set the following CLASSPATH
C:\lucene-1.4.3\lucene-demos-1.4.3.jar;C:\lucene-1.4.3\lucene-1.4.3.jar

Would really appreciate any help or ideas

Thank You
Helen

first rule of using Ant, don't use a CLASSPATH.  It is unnecessary, not 
to mention you put JAR files in there that you appear to be trying to 
build.

Do you have the source code distribution of Lucene?  It appears not, or 
you'd have src/java available.

It seems the java source files were not extracted.

How did you obtain the build.xml file?

Once the compilation works, you'll notice that the lucene jar being built
has a 1.5 version number because of an incorrect version number
in the 1.4.3 build.xml.
You need to correct the version property in the build.xml file:
  <property name="version" value="1.4.3"/>

Paul Elschot.
