Hi! I've downloaded Lucene's 4.8.0 source code and attempted to set up a project in Eclipse, but I couldn't make it work. Let me describe all the steps I have taken:
1) Downloaded Ant 1.8.2. Added the corresponding paths to the ANT_HOME and PATH variables. 2) Downloaded Ivy 2.0.0. Added the ivy-2.0.0.jar to the lib folder in Ant's directory. 3) Downloaded Lucene 4.8.0 zip with the source code. 4) Created an empty Java project. 5) Imported the source file from Lucene's zip file (through the option Archive file). 6) In Project/Properties/Builders, added an Ant builder. Selected the Buildfile build.xml from the src's source directory. Also selected that directory as the Base Directory. Then tried to build all the project, but it fails throwing the following output: Buildfile: E:\workspace\lucene-4.8.0\lucene-4.8.0\build.xml check-lucene-core-uptodate: compile-lucene-core: ivy-availability-check: ivy-fail: ivy-configure: BUILD FAILED E:\workspace\lucene-4.8.0\lucene-4.8.0\common-build.xml:693: The following error occurred while executing this line: E:\workspace\lucene-4.8.0\lucene-4.8.0\common-build.xml:379: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.osgi.internal.framework.EquinoxConfiguration$1 cannot be cast to java.lang.String I also tried with the latest versions of Ant and Ivy, but got the same result. Since I never configured a big project like this one, I don't have a clue about what am I doing wrong. Could someone explain me how to configure it please? Thanks in advance, Guido
