Building from source

["Johnson, Eric" <Er...@iona.com>]

If I run the default ant target in the root of the source distribution
does it run all of the tests?
What exactly does the dist target produce?
I want to build a deployable installation from the source is that the
target I should use?
TIA

Hi Eric,

Apologies if someone has replied in the meantime - but I couldn't spot one,
so here goes ...

I *think* the default ant target is build, which won't run all the tests
iirc. The best test target is testreport, which has timeout and reporting
above the target test.

Dist afaik compiles and creates jars. To create zips, tars etc you should
run archive.

Like my earlier email, writing from memory :-)

Hth,
Marnie
