1. I think this would be a very helpful feature for users of tycho and archiva
and I'd like to make this (once finished) available as open source. I was
wondering if this is something you'd be interested in hosting directly as an
apache archive component
Yes!
Is it against 1.3.x or trunk?
I used 1.3.5 but it's only a prototype so far, should be easy to switch
to trunk
If I understand correctly, it might be better to add a hook to allow the custom
code to remove the old files at the start of the scan when that is checked, and
not otherwise - rather than putting it in the consumer API itself?
Yes, that makes sense. I think I fell for the 'boolean
executeOnEntireRepo' parameter, which sounded to me like it would
correlate to the 'Process All Artifacts' flag, but as it turns out, it
doesn't :-)
Implementors of
archiva-modules/archiva-base/archiva-repository-layer/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/archiva/repository/events/RepositoryListener.java
(though it may not be consistently used for some deletions).
Exactly what I was looking for and kept missing for some reason. Thanks
a lot for your help.
