Bruce Snyder updated AMQ-1040:
------------------------------

    Attachment: pom.xml.diff.txt

Adding a sources JAR to the binary distribution would add another 2.5mb in size 
- not a good idea IMO. But making an aggregated sources JAR available is 
definitely a good idea so I've added that capability to the parent POM. See the 
attached patch. 

> Full src-jar distributed with binary

> For absolutely all developers (extrapolating from one person, myself), a 
> src-jar that comes with the "bin" distribution makes the world a better place 
> to live.
> With a src jar, you only add the full jar, "attach" the src-jar, and you're 
> _rellay_ good to go both developing but not least stack-tracing and 
> debugging. The src-jar should include sources for most of the stuff that 
> actually reside in the full jar, if not all.
> Eclipse: if you include the "full jar", it's slightly problematic to include 
> a whole bunch of dirs from the src-distro. You'll end up having to include 
> all those lib jars, and on each of them put the corresponding src dir.
> The whole thing won't bloat the distro very much - but will relieve very many 
> developers from having to download the extra distro, and from the annoyance 
> of not being able to just configure one simple jar with src-attachment.
