Building JetSpeeed from CVS

Hola a Todos:

( I have built JetSpeed only some comments to the build process as it's
designed now )

It's a pain to have a bin dir commited in the CVS repository , make
difficult to do a cvs update -P -d of the entire jetspeed module without
a prior " ant clean "...

I have a System Install of ant as i use it in my own projects.. have
needed to modify the build.xml file to suit my ant use, i do not use the
custom build.bat, so when trying to build jetspeed the ant.home variable
is not pointing to jetspeed own ant install.., junit.jar is not  found
this way.... ( this was easy to solve )..

I consider that it's no the best practice to include a pivate ant
install.., at least you will need to respect the user self-managed
environment in case he has one.. like me.. 

Another issue is that i found strange the requeriment of a bunch of
properties defined ( junit.jar cactus-xx, etc )... to no use them at all
when constructing the classpath ..;)

Apart from that caveats everything goes fine i'm about to deploy my new
freshly built jetspeed on 3.3 .., probably more comments soon :)


Saludos ,
Ignacio J. Ortega
