            Description

            As noted in the forum:
            http://support.icesoft.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=2287&tstart=0

            It's a little bit of a stumbling block for users trying to build the tutorial
            ant build scripts because they all refer to our svn paths, eg.
            'location="../../../../../../../icefaces/build/lib/icefaces.jar'. We should
            probably change this to '../../lib' and just tell them to put the packages in
            the samples directory of the download bundle to correctly resolve the paths.

            There is also confusion around how to specify the build-common.xml file location each tutorial's build.xml file. The correct anwser is to point it to the build-common.xml file included in the ICEfaces directory (itself created from unpacking a ICEfaces release bundle).

            In order to smooth out these manual configuration steps we should consider the following:

            A. Make each tutorial build fine without alteration if they unpack it under the ../icefaces/samples/ directory.
            B. Add a README.TXT or .HTML document to the top level of each tutorial .zip bundle that explains the necessary configurations in detail.

              Can you verify if this bug is still relevant or did we fix this already?

              It is still relevant, as the paths reference our local svn libraries. I think the idea was to have a separate "deploy" target that would use the local ../../lib folder so that the .zip sources people download from the facestutorials.icefaces.org site would be buildable.

              I moved build-common.xml and lib directory to the tutorial section and tweaked build-common to point to the lib inside the tutorial. I think this may be good for those, who just want to play around with tutorials without full scale engaging into icefaces. Any new tutorial built must point to this directory thus ensuring that it stays current.
