-----------------------------------------
Summary: Remove JLex.jar from the source repository
Key: XALANJ-2635
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2635
Project: XalanJ2
Issue Type: Task
Security Level: No security risk; visible to anyone (Ordinary problems in
Xalan projects. Anybody can view the issue.)
Components: XSLTC
Reporter: Vladimir Sitnikov
Assignee: Gary D. Gregory
https://github.com/apache/xalan-java/tree/master/tools contains JLex.jar which
is a binary file, and its provenance is unknown.
The ASF rules forbid compiled including compiled code to the source repository
(see https://lists.apache.org/thread/otx07h6vbjrsqd9r9sqpcpjscvjwtmfc), and in
this case, there's no real need to have JLex.jar in the source repository.
I suggest that JLex.jar should be removed and it should be replaced with
something else.
For instance, the source code of JLex could be added as a separate subfolder,
and xalan could compile JLex from sources.
It looks like the official distribution is not maintained:
