ivy

Has anyone dealt with any projects that use ivy? Appears to be similar to maven and downloads jars automatically, so it's probably going to need similar treatment to maven in the build system. -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com

jakarta-commons-lang 2.4
by Jerry James 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

I maintain findbugs, whose latest version needs jakarta-commons-lang 2.4. We currently ship 2.3. The upstream release notes [1][2] claim that 2.4 has no incompatibilities with 2.3. On the other hand, I see that jpackage (5.0) has both a jakarta-commons-lang (version 2.3) package and a jakarta-commons-lang24 package, but I don't know why. According to repoquery, these packages currently require jakarta-commons-lang: directory-naming eclipse-mylyn findbugs jakarta-commons-cli jakarta-commons-configuration jeuclid maven2 maven2-plugin-changes maven2-plugin-enforcer maven2-plugin-gpg maven2-plugin-jar maven2-plugin-javadoc openoffice.org-wiki-publisher plexus-registry Do the maintainers of any of these packages have any reason why jakarta-commons-lang should not be upgraded from 2.3 to 2.4?

What is the current Fedora / JPackage relationship?
by Aaron Clark 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

I've been looking to package up some java web frameworks and tools, but I've run into the issue of the fedora versions of some components being practically ancient, e.g. jakarta-commons-fileupload. Now, this package was originally forked from JPackage, but appears to have stagnated in Fedora as opposed to JPackage which has continued on and has an up-to-date version in their repository. What is the general guidance for java packages on Fedora? Should a java user/developer go to JPackage for all their java needs (a la RPMFusion for your binary graphics drivers and patent encumbered codecs), or should Fedora itself be packaging everything that is needed? Do any Fedora packages also contribute to JPackage? Furthermore, for the more pressing issue of severely outdated dependencies, should we be rebasing to the current JPackage, updating the existing specs, or creating new, modernized specs to update the packages? Thanks, Aaron

Why does ant ignore tasks in ~/.ant/lib ?
by Aaron Clark 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

So, I've been trying to track down why a simple taskdef in my build.xml fails to find the correct properties file when I don't have ANT_HOME set for my user. Here's the setup: 1. svnant.jar and svnClientAdapter.jar are both placed in $HOME/.ant/lib 2. I run the attached build.xml Without ANT_HOME variable set, I get the error message: "[taskdef] Could not load definitions from resource svntask.properties. It could not be found." Setting ANT_HOME to /usr/share/ant yields no error messages. In both cases I can clearly see the jars in my home directory on the classpath. I'm guessing it is some kind of classloader snafu. Does anyone have suggestions or insight? (besides the obvious case of setting ANT_HOME in my .bashrc) Thanks, Aaron (Versions...
