Conversation: Between James and Terence, 4.30.10
hello James
do you have a minute? 15:15
James Chy 15:17
Sure, how are things going
Tuhinanshu 15:18
Well, I was just trying to build Ant successfully in Eclipse, and I tracked down all the external libraries
but there are still problems 15:19
like I have a lot of classes called A.java 15:19
a number of them 15:19
and they are all conflicting 15:19
Have you tried fiddling around using Eclipse of Netbeans or something yet? 15:19
James Chy 15:20
Yeah, I have not yet been able to build successfully in eclipse.. look at my blog for how to build the project from the source.
Tuhinanshu 15:20
okay
James Chy 15:20
I used the provided build script
Tuhinanshu 15:21
I tried that but that didn't work either. Maybe with all the libraries that I have now, I can get that to work
James Chy 15:22
Perhaps there is something on the discussion board about getting this built under Eclipse 15:23
I think there is a discussion board 15:23
I have not seen it yet 15:23
Tuhinanshu 15:24
perhaps. I guess we have to build it completely each time, even though we're only going to work on a small bug right now?
just to make sure that it doesn't break anything else? 15:24
James Chy 15:25
I'm not sure
I think most of the folders have test scripts with common names causing the conflicts. 15:25
Tuhinanshu 15:25
because most of these errors are in the test cases, and I'm sure that I can build it if I remove them (or at least the problematic ones)
James Chy 15:25
I'm not sure how the build script gets around that
Right, probably just need to remove some source code directoris 15:26
Tuhinanshu 15:26
and Who does that? make so many classes with the same name, and then not use package identifiers to differentiate them?
James Chy 15:27
It would be nice to be able to pull it into eclipse and the project to be organized enough for eclipse to make educated enough guesses to create a functioning project
Tuhinanshu 15:28
well, I better get back to my stuff then
thanks for the help 15:28
and if you locate that discussion board, do blog it 15:29
James Chy 15:29
I'm planning on working on that a bit more this weekend
I will 15:29
Tuhinanshu 15:29
thanks
have a nice day 15:29
bye 15:29
James Chy 15:29
Bye
