I'm finding the the CVS repository in the CVS perspective and getting
the 2.1.1 version to check out. But build does not start automatically,
nor do I see any kind of error to tell me why. Also, I don't see
anywhere in the UI where I can do the following (from the HOWTO):

I don't see anything in the UI that will let me "build the source now",
nor do I see any sign the source has built (no class files anywhere I
can find, no log entries, no nothing).
How do I manually trigger a build? Also, can that info be added to the
instructions?
Thanks,

I may be having trouble with a "UI glitch". A couple possibilities:
1) There's a file called .project 1.1 in the CVS repository in the same
directory as the rest of the sub-directories. If you select it, "Check
Out" and "Checkout As" are no longer selectable in the context menu.
2) If checkout is done on the "source BIRT_2_1_1..." directory, you can
choose "check out", but apparently, automatic build does not get invoked.
I'm guessing that automatic build only works if the sub-directories are
checked out as 100 or so separate directories, not as a single
super-directory with 100 or so sub-directories.
The UI isn't really telling me what's going on; any advice you all have,
much thanks.

I believe I used Check out as.
Are you still having problems with this?

It appears that my two observations are correct: including the "source
BIRT..." folder will prevent autobuild from working, and including the
..project file will prevent "Checkout" from being selectable.
But once I knew about these two issues, autobuild worked.
It would also be good if there was an explicit note that DTP was needed
(the flatfile demo, for example, has moved out of the BIRT tree into the
DTP tree, for example), but I figured that much out.

There should be directions on the site. Go to to build ant script, right
mouse click, and choose Run/Run as Ant Build.
