Problems with nightly builds and perhaps other builds?

[Nacho <na...@siapi.es>]

it seems that the generation of the nightly build is losing the empty
dirs in the directory struct, and this leads in to problems with people
trying to use it, particularly there are issues with the appdev/sample
that it no contains all the dirs that the build.xml needs to build the
sample app, 

Perhaps this is only a problem on refreshing from Cvs, or perhaps the
zip tool that is used dont put into the compressed file the empty dirs.


Any comments?? who is in charge of nightly builds???

I think it's a CVS problem - you'll have to put a dummy file if you want
the
dir ( or you'll end up with all deleted directories too ).

"in charge" is a bit too much - but I wrote the build  scripts and have to
fix it every time it brakes ( too often )..
