Hi James,Cool. I put a fair bit of work into making jhbuild usable outside of Gnome (primarily for some of the freedesktop.org projects such as the X server), so it'll be good if it benefits you too.
I've been experimenting with using jhbuild for GNU Classpath
development. My compliments on jhbuild; it's a very nice tool!
If you use a URL for the module set in ~/.jhbuildrc, jhbuild should download and cache the module information from
Shouldn't be too difficult to implement. What layout do you use for your source/build trees in this setup?Our AWT implementation relies on GTK, so jhbuild is a natural fit for us. And it looks like jhbuild has the potential to make bootstrapping a Classpath-based development environment dramatically simpler.
I've run into one problem though. In the GNU Classpath world, we prefer
to have builddir != srcdir, whereas it seems most GNOME modules, and
hence jhbuild, assume builddir == srcdir. What do you think about
having a builddir != srcdir mode that could be set in .jhbuildrc?
James.
