Hi Erwan,
Ignore this paragraph since I wrote it will you were making the changes that
solved the problem:
I agree with Jacopo, I really think the best solution would be to just have
users that want cobertura run the separate ant task that downloads it instead
of doing it automatically for them. We are allowed optional dependencies of
non-compatible libraries but I think the automatic download when running tests
crosses the line in a mandatory dependency.
Also another thing to keep in mind for any feature is that a change that makes
life easier for you won't necessarily make life easier for everyone. For
example, I never look at the cobertura reports when running tests but now I
have to wait while the library is downloaded (not sure what happens when I'm
offline) and also put up with longer run times because of the additional
overhead of the instrumentation.
I'm not complaining though, just wanted to take the opportunity to again
highlight that sometimes certain additional features can be as much of a
hindrance to some as they can be a help to others.
Regards
Scott
Hi Scott,
i'm not using the cobertura feature either. The only reason I make
cobertura downloadable is to remove the errors at the build time.
So problem solved, we can ship the 11.04 release!
I'll take a look to your comment with the build target.
Cheers,
