I changed the URL to a working one: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/nb-javac/rev/f27cfc4e5d7c Note that the BCEL is not needed to get a working copy of nb-javac, it is only used to inside tests. Tests can be skipped by using "ant jar". > > This is the first time I even notice this. > > Shouldn't this binary be moved to http://hg.netbeans.org/binaries/ ? I hope that it will, eventually. But not so easy as it might seem, as it probably needs to be approved.

Downloading it from the correct binary cache server does not change anything from a legal standpoint; this is not part of the product anyway. Excellent job Jan getting rid of that dependency! |
