failed compiling latest revision from trunk

[wing-tung Leung]

Hello,

I'm trying to build webtest from the latest version at the Subversion repository, as described on the "Building" page. I use a external installation of Ant-1.7.1, running inside Cygwin on MS Windows. I have the same problem without Cygwin as well.

The build itself prints following "strange" messages:

-generateTaskdef:
[templatedoclet]  INFO (xdoclet.XDocletMain.start) - Running <template/>
[templatedoclet] Error parsing File c:\external\canoo-webtest-trunk\webtest\src\main\java\com\canoo\webtest\engine\xpath\XPathHelper.java:Encountered "<" at line 51, column 26.
[templatedoclet] Was expecting one of:

[templatedoclet]     <IDENTIFIER> ...
[templatedoclet]     "[" ...
[templatedoclet]     "." ...
[templatedoclet]     "(" ...
[templatedoclet]


And it finally aborts because it fails to find the commons-lang library:

Someone any idea what I'm doing wrong?
