Installed latest STS and checked out from svn projects as described in the wiki for setting up a development env.
On executing the ant build task, i get the following error: [javac] C:\Workspaces\ALFRESCO_SVN\alfresco\projects\repository\source\java\org\alfresco\repo\domain\schema\SchemaBootstrap.java:1844: error: SchemaBootstrap.UnclosableConnection is not abstract and does not override abstract method getNetworkTimeout() in Connection [javac] public class UnclosableConnection implements Connection [javac] ^
OK, for a fix, I used the IDE's quick fix and added the stub implementations for the missing interface methods. Everything builds now, will see if it runs…
I guess it is because I use jdk 1.7 (that is where the referenced interface is). I'll try to verify by switching to earlier version. Thanks for all who looked.
