Answer 5

There's not a bug. However if you want to build edtFTPj yourself, you *must* use ant and the build.xml supplied.

You can't build in eclipse, as ant does some substitutions of version numbers into the code.

Answer 6

Actually, you can build and run it from within the Eclipse debugger. You'll find that it stops with the '@major_ver@' error a couple of times, but you can just continue past those errors and everything should work fine.

The other option, of course, is to manually substitute @major_ver@.
