Hiram Chirino commented on AMQ-701: ----------------------------------- I think going with patform specific distributions is the way to go. It solves problems like Windows users not being able to read the README and LICENSE files due to EOL issues. Same thing applies to the eamples and documentation. I would be open to creating *-windows.zip, *-windows.tar.gz, *-unix.zip, and *-unix.tar.gz if you really think that folks on both patforms want to have the zip and tar.gz options. But I don't think that is the case either. Also when a user uses cygwin, he's going to want to use the unix distribution since the EOL characters are unix style and he can use .sh files to launch activemq. So I'm not sure there is a down side this yet. > Unix scripts in distro should have mode 755 > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: AMQ-701 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-701 > Project: ActiveMQ > Type: Improvement > Components: Broker > Versions: 4.0 RC3, 4.0 RC2, 4.0 M4 > Reporter: Jason Dillon > Assignee: Hiram Chirino > Fix For: 4.1 > > > All of the unix scripts in the distro should have their mode set to 755, as > in: > cd bin/ > chmod 755 activemq browse bstat list query shutdown > Users should be able to unzip/untgz the distro and then run bin/activemq with > out any extra steps. > <zipfileset> supports a filemode attribute, and <tarfileset> suports a mode > attribute that allow you to set the right mode on the archived files. > See the "release" target here for a real example: > http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/p4spam/p4spam/trunk/build.xml?view=markup&rev=57 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
