Re: [birt-dev] Building BIRT head

Hi Deepa,
 
Thanks for the comprehensive instructions.  Everything worked correctly for me, except for 2 small problems not mentioned below. 
 
1) Under the org.eclipse.birt.report.data.oda.xml.ui folder, create a 'src' folder
 
2) Under the org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.html.tests, create a 'test' folder
 
3) Run Clean then Build All.
 
After this I have no errors in my workspace.
 
Regards,
 
Susan

Subject: [birt-dev] Building BIRT head

Hi,

>From the newsgroup posts, I understand these instructions will be
updated soon. Thanks for working on this. I think it would also be
very helpful to get mail notifications to birt-dev if any changes are
required in build environment (like changes in Eclipse version, JRE
version etc).

In the meantime, I was wondering if anyone else has seen this one
error which I still see in my build with the source from head:

'Bundle-SymbolicName' header is required
org.eclipse.birt.build/META-INF    MANIFEST.MF    line 1
1169487223234    353155

Steps I followed to build the source on a Windows XP machine:

1. Download BIRT all-in-one-package
(birt-report-designer-all-in-one-2.2.0-N20070110.zip). Unzip it and use the
Eclipse packaged with it.

2. Download all the source from cvsroot/birt/HEAD/source

3. Download the extra plugins as mentioned in
org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer/Build_Web_Viewer_Instruction.txt:
org.apache.batik.pdf, org.apache.batik and org.apache.xerces plugins

4. For org.eclipse.birt.report.tests.viewer project, download the jars
mentioned in org.eclipse.birt.report.tests.viewer/readme. All the jars except
httpunit.jar, servletapi-2.3.jar and nekohtml.jar are available under the
eclipse plugins in the all-in-one package. I downloaded the above three jars
separately.

5. Download dom4j.jar as mentioned in org.eclipse.birt.build/readme.txt. I also
had to copy ant.jar from the eclipse plugins to org.eclipse.birt.build/lib and
add both these jars to the build path of org.eclipse.birt.build project.

6. Set the JRE used by Eclipse to JRE 1.5

The above error does not hinder me from working with rest of source
but I was wondering if there is some setting I may have missed in my
environment. I would appreciate any suggestions for this.

Thanks,
Deepa
