I checked out the code for ACTIVITI projet from " http://svn.codehaus.org/activiti/projects/"….. and just as your source code i couldn't find any build file in it…instead i found some 10 pom.xml(Maven) files…I have to build all these pom.xml individually or have to write one ant or Maven file to get the required jars for IDE …is this the only hard way to do it ?? I have one more way of easily updating my eclipse IDE from the "update software" option..but i don't want to do it..I want to build and generate my own jars….
Hi Tiese, Thanks for immediate and bulls eye response..i tried the way u said..and it downloaded some 10 to 12 MB of jars and got stuck at this point——–>

This is a problem in one of the deps your build downloaded (looks like a corrupt jar file), so I'm afraid I can;'t help you with that. Try cleaning your local maven repo and re-running the command.
