----------------------------------------

Hi Craig, welcome back. There is currently work going on to prepare Digester 
for a 1.8 release; finishing maven2 support is the major TODO. Hopefully a 
release can be made in the next couple of weeks.

There is a recent email thread in the dev archives talking about release stuff.

Of course all help is welcome!

> This was originally filed against Beehive as
> http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-960 , but I've narrowed it down 
> to
> either a Digester issue or a Tomcat issue.  Tomcat seems to suggest that this 
> is
> an issue related to getting resources out of a JAR:
>     - http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33830
>     - http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/windows.html#lock
> Specifically, Tomcat turned off the behavior that prevents locking of JARs 
> under
> Windows.  They did this to improve startup time.  I don't necessarily agree 
> with
> this choice as a default, but if you believe their bug comments and FAQ, this
> actually just exposes Windows-specific bugs in the way resources are read out 
> of
> JARs.
> To reproduce this:
>     - Run 'ant build war' in the attached directory.
>     - Copy strutsRedeploy.war into $CATALINA_HOME/webapps.
>     - Verify that there is a fully-extracted webapp under
> $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/strutsRedeploy.
>     - Copy strutsRedeploy.war (again) into $CATALINA_HOME/webapps.
> Now look in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/strutsRedeploy -- it failed to redeploy, 
> and
> the only file left in there is WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar.
> I'm attaching a Digester patch that fixes the issue.
> Note: the fix for this issue belongs in one of three places:
>     - Tomcat (which has rejected working around it since it impacts startup 
> time)
>     - Digester
>     - XML support in the JDK
> Hopefully you'll choose Digester.  :)
