Therefore, I thought I would post some information that I've
learned (and problems that I've encountered) here since I supposed
others are or soon will be doing the same thing. Perhaps somebody
has some information that might help get around some of problems
listed below (such as when Jetty snapshots might be published?).
First, this is a feature branch. To use it you must first build
trunk to populate your local repository. Next you must checkout
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/sandbox/javaee5 and build
it.
However, in doing the last step you'll hit some problems:
- The Jetty 6.1 snapshots are not published anywhere yet (at least
not anywhere I've been able to find them). Therefore, you will
need to build Jetty 6.1 locally. Can somebody related to both
Geronimo and Jetty help us to get the Jetty 6.1 snapshots published?
They are currently available at
http://jetty.mortbay.org/maven2/snapshot
however I am encouraging jan to publish them to the codehaus snapshot
repo. I think we can wait a day or two for this rather than adding
another repo to the list.
Building Jetty:
- You can check out Jetty from http://svn.codehaus.org/jetty/jetty/
trunk Jetty requires cvs to build (in case you don't already
have it). For me the build failed because of test failures but it
appeared to create the jetty jars that we need.
After building Jetty you should be ready to build the javaee5
branch. Of course, this build requires JDK 1.5
- Next I hit a problem building javaee5. Apparently there have
been some changes in Jetty since the original integration in the
branch. It appears that the Jetty Session object may have
changed. Here is the error I received:

I committed a change to this class to work with current jetty 6.1
I then spoke with David Jencks and he told me the revision of Jetty
that he used when he first created the branch. That was revision
1064. So, I checked out this Jetty revision but with this one the
build fails earlier with this error ....

I haven't seen this.
I'll let you know as I resolve these issues in case you too need to
work on the JavaEE5 branch.
