Is it expected that one can unpack the src tarball and run build.sh? the 'dist' target does an svn export, so it breaks in an unversioned directory. I suppose this is ok if the rest succeeds.
On Java, tests are not passing for me (from the tarball or trunk) : https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-644 Perhaps some quirk of the file system on the Mac. c, c++, python all build and test fine here. I don't have the proper requirements installed for php and have not completed a build. We need some documentation on build requirements. I'm unfamiliar with Ruby, and it is complaining about yajl meanwhile 'gem install' doesn't know what yajl is and I'm stopping at that point for now. Again, we might want to document the build requirements (so far for me: echoe and yajl). Since I'm rather Ruby and PHP ignorant, I'll look past those. I would like all the java tests to pass though. Unfortunately, the one that is failing above works fine from eclipse or if I run it in isolation, and only fails when in batch with the others. I won't have time to look into it in more detail today. -Scott On Aug 30, 2010, at 10:58 AM, Doug Cutting wrote: > I have created a second candidate build for Avro release 1.4.0. > > Changes are listed at: > > http://tinyurl.com/3yp6zrm > > Please download, test, and vote by 31 August. > > http://people.apache.org/~cutting/avro-1.4.0-rc1/ > > Thanks, > > Doug
