Re: [CZT-Devel] Issues Building CZT in Windows

[Andrius V. <an...@ve...>]

Dear Jon Lockhart,

Thanks for reporting your experiences building CZT. Could you send
more details about the error that is occurring for you? The last bits
of Maven build output would be good, or if tests are failing, try
attaching surefire test reports with the failures.

Also, there have been some changes since the last release, so the
installation instructions on the website may not be fully up-to-date.

The SVN repository is no longer updated (currently read-only and will
be removed soon). All new code goes to the Git repository. There are
more up-to-date instructions on building CZT available in the Git
repository: http://czt.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=czt/czt;a=blob_plain;f=INSTALL.md

Finally, we have quite nice Eclipse plug-ins in the latest version for
CZT as an alternative to jEdit - the update site is built together
with the whole CZT.

I am looking into setting up a continuous integration (CI) system for
CZT soon. Hopefully then we will have "nightly" downloads and there
will be less need to build everything manually.

Best regards,
~Andrius Velykis
