| compile error for source tar ball [message #327563] | Thu, 24 April 2008 13:41 |  | 
| Eclipse User  |  |  |  |  | Hello, I've downloaded the
 eclipse-sourceBuild-srcIncluded-I20080415-1646.zip.  However when I run
 the command:
 
 build -os win32 arch x86, I get the following error
 
 
 C:\dev\cvs2\ball\plugins\org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.ui\build. xml:492: The
 followi
 ng error occurred while executing this line:
 C:\dev\cvs2\ball\plugins\org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.ui\build. xml:449:
 Compile fai
 led; see the compiler error output for details.
 
 
 Tracing it to the log file, I see the following:
 
 
 
 
 
 123. ERROR in
 C:\dev\cvs2\ball\plugins\org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.ui\src\or g\eclipse\pde\api\tools\ui\internal\wizards\ApiProfileWizard Page.java
 (at line 285)
 
 return ((String)o1).compareTo(o2);
 
 ^^^^^^^^^
 
 The method compareTo(String) in the type String is not applicable for
 the arguments (Object)
 
 ----------
 
 
 
 
 Just in case someone wonders what I am doing. I have a new job as
 release engineer. I am asked to write plugins to generates build script
 for our department. I am trying to understand the workings of eclipses
 before I start because it's a long-term commitment.
