[platform-swt-dev] Having trouble following the "build JNI from CVS" instructions.

Folks:

Thank you for SWT!  I'm trying to learn SWT because it is the newly adopted GUI 
platform for the E language project [1].

I tried to follow the instructions for building from CVS [2], but I'm stuck on 
#4: "Compile the project. This will create a folder called bin under the 
org.eclipse.swt project.".  When I run "ant", it gives some successful sounding 
output [3], but no "bin" directory (or file) is created.  I've poked around for 
other things that could be meant by "Compile the project.", but no top-level 
makefile or build script is to be found either.  It can't mean to execute the 
build.csh in "./Eclipse SWT PI/gtk/library/build.csh", because that's 
instruction #6!

I will now switch gears and try the "build from a package download" approach.
