Hi devs, The workspace module has a maven artefact (workspace-template) that produces an enhanced (adds extra pages, set some properties, overrides some pages, etc.) XE xar that is to be used by all the created workspaces. The problem is that, being part of the platform, this creates a cyclic dependency in maven thus breaking the build. Also, the 3.2RC1 release is supposed to be today, so the matter is rather urgent.
To fix this, there might be a couple of solutions on which I`d like your opinion/vote: 1) Rewrite the workspace-template module and, instead of using maven to produce a customized XE xar, use velocity within the workspace application to enhance a standard XE xar at runtime, when actually creating the workspace. (needs some time) 2) Move the workspace-template module into the XEM build and bundle workspace by default with XEM. (quick to do) 3) Move the workspace-template module into the XE build, even though workspaces is not bundled by default with XE. (quick to do, but not necessarily right) 4) Unlink the workspace module from the platform build, so that it is skipped from the build and that it does not break it, but leave the hooks. (quick to do, leaves way for further work) 5) Just revert everything related to workspaces from the platform and possibly keep the existing work in a branch. (quick to do, but also removes the hooks) Here's my +1 for 2). Thanks, Eduard _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
