Hi guys,
we have some code in shared for the client API. In order to test it, as
we need a running ldap server, the tests have been pushed to a apacheds
sub project : ldap-api-test.
This was not a good idea. We already have a client project
(http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/directory/clients/trunk/ldap/) containing
code for a LDAP client. I suggest we move all the client API code there,
tests included, with dependencies on shared and apacheds.
We also should make both the kerberos and ldap clients a part of the
externals in the main project, so that we immediately see the impact of
any modification done in either shared or apacheds.
So referencing SNAPSHOT-versions of subprojects will be a must. To see
impacts immediately in the Apache CI we should not have the different
subprojects like apacheds, shared, daemon, installer, ... but
trunk-with-dependencies as a the one and only project to build.
So we have the need to haven SNAPSHOT dependencies in out pom, like
share-x.x.x-SNAPHOST in the apacheds/pom.xml.
This would be in contradiction of [1]
"At some point, we may want to decouple the server from the shared
snapshots to avoid having hundreds of compilation failures in ADS (or in
Studio)."
Not necessarily. As we are working with externals, we can perfectly
create a trunk-with-tagged project whith references to tagged
shared/client/etc versions.
When developping the server, I want to point on SNAPSHOT for each of the
projects. At some point in the future, I may want to work with a stable
version of shared. I will just have 2 different environment to work on.
