Anita, why do you always bring this up when there is talk about
bootstrap?
Because when people are using bootstrap, it is not very obvious what
is going on. It is much simpler to give the 3 URLs and a simple build
command mvn. If there are build/test failures, they can look at the
default profile, and see what they are building. If for example the
openejb2 test failed, they could simply do
cd openejb2 and
mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true
After this they can continue the build from the next step, i.e.
configs, etc.
I have explained over and over and over again that the
point of bootstrap is not to facilitate a normal build but to ensure
People only care about the normal build.
that the build works from a known state (ie. clean, fresh specs,

openejb2). Your method does not provide this level of assurance. I

commands to perform the build steps that were needed to help ensure
that most everyone (except for some folks with whacky windows
machines) can make a reliable build near 100% of the time.
I'm really kinda getting tired of having to re-explain this.
To build geronimo with openejb2 add openejb2 to the default profile
in
the top level pom.xml as shown below:
<modules>
<module>modules</module>
<module>maven-plugins</module>
<module>applications</module>
<module>openejb2</module>
<-------
<module>configs</module>
<module>assemblies</module>
</modules>
and
No, no, no, no... no... no. We had already talked about this weeks
ago. Its fine that you want to build in this manner, but I am
firmly
against putting a module into the main build that is for a directory
that the user must checkout by hand.
I do not see any problems with that. Let us give people a
choice by
putting these instructions on the wiki and they can decide if they
want
to use bootstrap. BTW, it is in line with your philosophy about
builds:
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-Unable-to-build-using-m2-p5074204.html
cd ..
mvn
After the first time you can build from any directory.
Please give it a try and provide feedback, so that we can put
bootstrap to rest.
I don't have any problems with you, or anyone else making changes to
include openejb2 in their local workspace (I'd recommend putting
that
into a profiles.xml next to the pom.xml though). But I think that
your method is unacceptable for the project default.
Bootstrap is there for a reason... I am not crazy, I actually know
what I am doing.
At this point I believe that bootstrap is important and needs to
remain, until the items I previously listed are resolved.
I am not asking you to remove the bootstrap, I want to give our
users a choice.
Thanks
Anita
