[castor-dev] Unable to compile Castor

Discussion:

I checked out the latest code from SVN:

svn checkout https://svn.codehaus.org/castor/castor/trunk

But I am unable to get it to compile using bin/build.sh.

In particular it complains about not being able to find these classes:

org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.BindXml
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.ClassChoice
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.ClassMapping
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.FieldMapping
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.MapTo
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.MappingRoot
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.types.BindXmlNodeType
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.types.FieldMappingCollectionType
org.exolab.castor.mapping.xml.ClassMapping

I am unable to find these classes either in my SVN checkout or in trunk.zip (http://svn.castor.codehaus.org/viewrep/~tarball=zip/castor/castor/trunk/trunk.zip)

Do I need to download something else in order to compile Castor? Do I need to adjust my classpath?

Thanks,
August

August,

please use Maven only for building Castor. We have - a couple of weeks
ago - decided to purge all generated classes from our SVN repository,
and thsu rely on Maven (and the Maven plugin for Castor) to generate
those classes from existing XML schemas.

And yes, I know that documentation about this change is not fully available.

Regards
Werner

Hello,

can you please provide your environment? OS, Java version, Maven
version, directory name...
We have another user that also encounters a problem building Castor
under Windows and I want to check if you two are maybe running into
the same problem...

Have fun
Joachim

Joachim,

August i till trying to use Ant, instead of Maven. As a matter of fact,
we know that this won't work anymore, but have not communicated this
clearly.

Yes some docs would certainly have helped. What ever happened to the Castor wiki?

BTW: My dev environment is Solaris 10, Java 1.5. I have not used Maven before but I guess now I will learn something new...

August

August,

we are definitely aware of this, and we'll try to improve some docs
before 1.3 final.

http://castor.org/contributing.html#Using-Maven-2

has some very little information on how to build Castor using Maven 2
(please make sure that you get Maven 2.0.9).

To the old one ? It vanished .. :-(. But there#s a Confluence instance
available for castor at the Codehaus, and I think we should start using
it (again).
