Werner Keil commented on DMAP-198:
----------------------------------
I checked and the .NET versions naturally don't even have a JARLoader because
JARs are specific to Java.
No option to recreate something like a ZIPLoader at least not with the
zero-resources available to help.
So to keep all relevant clients working it's crucial to have a folder they can
point to even after the VM could likely be gone (or if it's offline like in
prior cases)
> Make Device data available as flat XML files, not ZIP or JAR

> Key: DMAP-198
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DMAP-198
> Project: DeviceMap
> Issue Type: Question
> Components: Device data
> Affects Versions: 1.0.3 Data
> Reporter: Werner Keil
> Assignee: Werner Keil
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.0.4 Data
>
>
> Is it possible to release DeviceMap Data (1.0.4) only or in addition to Maven
> as an "exploded archive" aka XML files in a folder?
> Several projects do have plain text files (other than README) in their
> distros,
> http://apache.org/dist/vcl/2.4.2/ contains (signed) .SH files
> http://apache.org/dist/karaf/documentation/ contains HTML and PDF (not even
> signed)
> http://apache.org/dist/sling/eclipse/ (could be a P2 repo) consists of
> entirely unsigned XML files.
> So not every project puts all download files into an archive, thus it should
> be possible to do so with DeviceMap data to allow "URL" access from that
> location (if others are gone)
