Hello Rett,
as you said, the "root" script generates the source code for each
edition in the "build/temp/<edition>" directory plus a dedicated build
script ("build/temp/<edition>/build.xml").
Then, it launches each edition build script (including compilation, test
phases, etc) as usual. I'm aware the result of the test phases are not
taken into account at the "root" script level... That's very annoying, I
have to fix that quickly.
If you want to run a particular edition build, just launch the
"generate" task with the root script, then go to the
"build/temp/<edition>" directory and launch "directly" the build script.
>it seems like the build system doesn't support compiling and testing
from the root (i.e., directly from the actual source).
yes, you're right. And your comment is very interesting, we will discuss
that point with Jérôme.

I agree with you. The support of the "Restlet editions" is quite recent,
so any comment will help.
best regards,
Thierry Boileau
you can see this page for some details about the building of the Restlet
editions =>
