Hoss -- 

Thanks for prior replies; now back to this one. 

Context: I am trying to work with 2.2.0 (as mentioned), but when I got the 
downloads (src and class-jar), they did not inclde something called 
"highlighter" that it now turns out I need. So ... 

>: the "anonymous" SVN (http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/trunk/)
>: does not work for me (I am using Eclipse 3.3, and have the subversion 
>plug-in, v.
>: 1.2.4, and have successfully checked out code using SVN from other 
>repositories).
>: Apparently here I need a user-id and pwd -- what is that or where do I get 
>one?

OK, I tried again, and this time no-code asked for a user-id/pwd, and I could 
see the whole repository-tree 
(http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/trunk/...); but ... when I tried 
to check out the "highlighter" project, Eclipse sent me into a "quasi-infinite" 
loop (described below to help others avoid this mess, not b/c I think there's 
anything wrong with the Lucene repository).

This way seems to work: 
   1) drill down and select "highlighter" 
   (the page http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_4_0/lucene-sandbox/index.html 
   has a link that takes me directly to that level of the tree, i.e., to 
   http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/trunk/contrib/highlighter/); 

   2) ask Eclipse to check out the "highlighter" 

   3) Eclipse presents me with a dialog (I'd attach a PNG of a screen shot 
   of it, but some newsgroups reject attachments -- are they allowed here?), 
   that asks whether I want to check it out as a project ("Using the New 
   Project Wizard") or into a project in the workspace (which sounds like 
   it means an *existing* project); 

   4) after I aborted the quasi-inf-loop (below), I just selected the 
   "check out as project in the workspace" and accepted the default name 
   ("highlighter"). 

   5) ta-da: actual code!

(As for command-line checkout: I am pretty well an idiot about command-lines; 
no clue at all what the syntax would be ...) 

thanks,
Paul

whether I want to check it out as a project ("Using the New Project Wizard") or 
into a project in the workspace (which sounds like it means an *existing* 
project); 

4) I pick "new project" (since I have no existing project that would make sense 
as a home for it -- I want to compile "highlighter" against the existing lucene 
jar that I have); 

5) Eclipse presents me with another dialog (ditto on screen shot) that asks me 
to select a wizard (a bit odd, this, since I thought I already did), and I 
select the obvious choice "Checkout projects from SVN"; 

6) then in the next page of that dialog I am asked to select a repository (ok, 
getting weirder -- surely I have selected a repository!?) -- I do so; 

7) then in the next page of that dialog I am asked to select a project 
(ummm...) so I drill down to /lucene/java/trunk/contrib/highlighter; 

8) I click "Next" and find myself back at step 3 ... (this repeats as often as 
one wants to bother).
