Xapian discuss - Jun 2008 - Has anyone gotten Xapian java bindings to work with Eclipse?

I've been trying and for some reason the build is ignoring its own 
classpath.  I think it's time to go back to Tomcat, vi and ant.  ;)

That begs the question as how to install the more modern ones.

It was pretty intuitive to use them since the top level README contains 
the following:

Java            Java bindings (built using JNI) contributed by Eric B. 
Ridge.
                See java/README for Java binding specific information.

Perhaps it's time to change the docs if what you say is true.
