project


Hi all,
I am trying to run ant, and for some reason it gives me this error message.

BUILD FAILED

Target `build.xml' does not exist in this project.

and for some reason , if i create an empty target called build.xml ,it looks
at other files in the directory and complains
Target 'x' does not exist in this project.

And this problem is specific to my machine , the build works fine for other
colleagues who use the same build.

Any help or comment really appreciated,
thanks,
Rakshit

RE: new user problem Target `build.xml' does not exist in this projectI just
discovered something,
I get this problem , only when i try to run ant from folders that have files
marked by cvs,
which is very wierd.

btw ant -projecthelp throws up the same error
