example work & logs directories needed?
---------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-2586
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2586
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Build
Reporter: David Smiley
Priority: Minor
Firstly, what prompted this issue was me wanting to use a git solr mirror but
finding that git's lack of empty-directory support made the "example" ant task
fail. This task requires examples/work to be in place so that it can delete its
contents. Fixing this was a simple matter of adding:
{code:xml}
<mkdir dir="${example}/work" /><!-- in case not there -->
{code}
Right before the delete task.
But then it occurred to me, why even have a "work" directory since Jetty will
apparently use a temp directory instead. -- try for yourself (stdout snippet):
bq. 2011-06-11 00:51:26.177:INFO::Extract
file:/SmileyDev/Search/lucene-solr/solr/example/webapps/solr.war to
/var/folders/zo/zoQJvqc9E0076p0THiri+k+++TI/-Tmp-/Jetty_0_0_0_0_8983_solr.war__solr__k1kf17/webapp
On my Mac, this same directory was used for multiple runs, so somehow Jetty or
the VM figures out how to reuse it.
Since this "example" setup isn't a *real* installation -- it's just for
demonstration, arguably it should not contain what it doesn't need. Likewise,
perhaps the empty example/logs directory should be deleted. It's not used by
default any way.
