RE: [wtp-dev] Please give it a try -> WTP Bach Build instructions

["Konstantin Komissarchik" <kosta@xxxxxxx>]

What I am looking for is a way to reproduce the command-line build given
some changes (potentially to features and/or the build scripts). These
kind of changes can't be tested in an Eclipse workspace.

Konstantin, I haven't looked at how the Build is setup. But typically, I

make my builds for various projects work off the contents of a Workspace

and the files that are in a workspace.

The other option that I've seen typically done is to tag the files for a

particular build, and then pull them by a tag. But it sounds like you 
are looking more for a complete workspace build instead of pulling 
anything from CVS to build.
