OK I got it to compile. I didn't do a damn thing but leave it alone and work on something else for a few hours, but it compiles. At least to a point. Now i get this error:
compile-classes:
[mkdir] Created dir: /Users/lipab/jboss-backups/jboss-3.0.3-src/system/output/classes
[javac] Compiling 61 source files to /Users/lipab/jboss-backups/jboss-3.0.3-src/system/output/classes
/Users/lipab/jboss-backups/jboss-3.0.3-src/system/src/main/org/jboss/deployment/SubDeployerSupport.java:98: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable OBJECT_NAME
location: interface org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployerMBean
server.invoke(org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployerMBean.OBJECT_NAME,

followed by 11 others all looking for OBJECT_NAME.
I've looked in MainDeployerMBean and there is no OBJECT_NAME variable in it or any of the classes it extends.
How to solve this one so the server compiles correctly?
Incidentally I had this same problem with the 3.0.2 source and never figured it out or found a solution anywhere.
Thanks for any help offered,
Brian
