[Engine-devel] Building ovirt engine instructions

[Hopper, Ricky]

Through some experimentation, I found a list of steps that seems to fix
everything on my machines:

restapi-definition ->  project ->  properties -> java build path ->
source ->  add source folder ->  target/generated-sources/xjc
webadmin ->  project ->  properties ->  java build path -> source ->  add
source folder ->  target/generated-sources/{annotations,gwt}
frontend ->  project ->  properties ->  java build path -> source ->  add
source folder ->  target/generated-sources/gwt
gwt-common -> project ->  properties ->  java build path -> source ->  add
source folder ->  target/generated-sources/annotations
userportal -> project ->  properties ->  java build path -> source ->  add
source folder ->  target/generated-sources/{annotations,gwt}


These make sure there can't be any cycles introduced, and resolve all
errors in the projects. Let me know if any of this doesn't work for you.
