...I found some things I like to hear some opinions on before changing the whole build system ;-) 1. I found that the status="unstable" should be not in the properties.xml file but the modules.xml file. since that's the file that describes our blocks 2. Why is this file called modules.xml? Shouldn't it be better named blocks.xml? But it also includes the core... Should we have a core block? 3. No matter what I select in the properties.xml (include or not) it seem every block gets included (for installwar) - someone else experienced that before? (I haven't had time to have a closer look yet) 4. For me it seems like javadocs/documentation as well as the blocks are *always* build (for installwar). no matter what is selected in the properties.xml. this might of course also be related to 3. 5. Shouldn't we have also a lib directory inside blocks and move the optional jars into those directories? So we can easily copy them only if they are really needed inside the webapp 6. javadoc spits out dozens of full text lines... warnings and stuff. is that really necessary? Cannot remember to have seen it that verbose before... Maybe because I switched to jdk1.4 now? (stupid GLIBC_2.0 bug in 1.3) Anyone: before making bigger changes of the build system please talk back to me since I have some things waiting to be committed ;-) Fire off! it's late - good night :-) -- Torsten --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
