Anthony Baker commented on GEODE-826:
-------------------------------------
One thing we could consider is using the gradlew script from bigtop:
https://github.com/apache/bigtop/blob/master/gradlew
Naming-wise, let's drop the .txt extensions and using 'BUILDING' instead of
'COMPILING'.
> source dist information text files are wrong
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GEODE-826
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-826
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0-incubating.M1
> Reporter: Dick Cavender
>
> After extracting the apache-geode-src-1.0.0-incubating.M1.zip source dist the
> instructions in the COMPILING.txt file says to run gradlew to build but
> gradlew isn't (and can't) be included in the source dist.
> We likely need a separate set of top level instruction file that are specific
> to each distribution where a common one doesn't work.
> There is also an inconsistency in file types as we COMPILING.txt and
> RUNNING.txt have a txt extension the README.md is different and the NOTICE
> has no extension.
