Description Tom Henderson 2010-02-01 00:41:05 UTC 
Reported here: http://mailman.isi.edu/pipermail/ns-developers/2010-January/007365.html

I use SVN to manage my ns-3 repository.  After committing base ns-3.7
to SVN, I get the following when I try to build:

$ ./waf
Waf: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/users/kevin/ns3.7/build'
 error: Could not read the file
'/cygdrive/c/users/kevin/ns3.7/examples/.svn/wscript'

It's trying to find wscript in my .svn directories.  I had to comment
out the following from the root wscript for the build to go through
for me:

   # if env['ENABLE_EXAMPLES']:
        # bld.add_subdirs('examples')
        #for dir in os.listdir('examples'):
        #    if os.path.isdir(os.path.join('examples', dir)):
        #        bld.add_subdirs(os.path.join('examples', dir))

This did not happen in ns-3.6 as it looks like building the examples
was done differently.

Omit CVS and .* subdirectories from examples/ listing.

Instead of commenting out this block of code, you can just "./waf configure --disable-examples".

Similar to bug 387 [1].
