You have to build seam first.

Just type "ant" in the main dir.

i did not resolve this problem yet, can anybody help me?

this error pointed to build.xml file line 623.
there is compileui configs:

<target name="compileui" depends="initui,select-compiler"
 description="Compile the Java source code for the UI package">
 <javac
 source="1.5"
 target="1.5"
 destdir="${uiclasses.dir}"

 deprecation="${javac.deprecation}"
 nowarn="on">
 <src path="${src.ui.dir}"/>
 </javac>
 </target>

i don't know how to resolve this problem :(.

Re-check-out jboss-seam. I promise you that CVS can be compiled.

Re-check-out jboss-seam. I promise you that CVS can be compiled.

Is there some information on what is required to do that? I've been trying for a couple of weeks, and always get the same error.

Can Apache Ant 1.7.0 compile it ok? That's what I'm using. My compiler is Sun's 1.5.0_11. Am I missing some configuration? All I'm doing is CO from CVS, change build.properties to point to the installation of jboss-4.2.0.GA.

Here's the compile error I always get:

[javac] Compiling 407 source files to /opt/jboss-seam/build/classes
 [javac] /opt/jboss-seam/src/main/org/jboss/seam/core/Expressions.java:6: package org.jboss.seam.el does not exist

... etc.

Yes, I read the references you pointed out, but since it speaks to
seam-1.2, not CVS (1.3 alpha?), and refers to ant 1.7 beta (not
1.7.0), I wasn't sure whether the issue with ant applied to the latest
source in CVS.

I have tried using ant 1.6.5, and consistently get the same errors there, too.

Thx... Squ1rr3l

What program are you using to check out? If you're using WinCvs, make sure you tick the 'create missing directories that exist in the repository' box.

[squ1rr3l]

Hmmm... I'm using GNU CVS 1.12.13 (or should that be FSF CVS?). I assume I'm getting everything since I don't get any errors but of course I may not be.

I do have /lib/jboss-el.jar and /lib/jboss-el-api.jar, and they are referenced in the ".classpath" file, so I don't know why I'm getting this error.

I'm assuming there is something wrong with my configs either in jboss, java, or ant, but I don't know where to look.

[squ1rr3l]

Ok, obviously something was missing, and CVS was not updating the entire tree... I completely deleted the directory and re-ran the check-out from scratch, and everything compiles fine. Should have done that before :-/

javac went from "Compiling 407 source files... " to "Compiling 417 source files..."
!!

cvs up -C -d will ensure you get exactly the source tree as on the server - otherwise CVS won't update stuff it thinks might have been changed locally.
