Look in jakarta-lucene-sandbox/projects/appex - I've commited Kelvin / manfred's code there.
I couldn't find the tararchive class so I commented that out. To build it you can use the interactive build with ./build.sh and see the targets, you can type ./build.sh docs to get teh docs you can type ./build.sh compile to compile it... or you can type ./build.sh mavendocs to get the docs as made by maven. Due to limitations in maven the non-relative links don't render right so the proposal and lucene link won't work. I'll see what I can do to follow up with the maven guys on that. It works fine in the *docs* build. This format gives us a few advantages. ONe of which is that we can have seperate xbuild.xml files under src/targets which can seperate out functionality instead of having one monolithic build.xml. A *cent* is basically an identified library that has a known repository location... look in tools/cents/* for the ones that we're using (forrest, maven, etc for documentation) This uses some alpha and beta cents so you can't autodownload them if you delete tools/cents/* -- once the next version of these cents are officially *blessed* then you will be able to delete them and have them autoupdate. This should happen soon. I'll work on getting cents made for jdom and the rest of the dependencies so that we don't have to store them in cvs. In the comming weeks I hope to move classes out of the "search" package and into src/java/org/apache/lucene/appex and create some basic specs for particular concerns. I think I'm sold on using avalon for much of these as I think a component based architecture is the best idea and Avalon's documentation is getting much better. I realize this email may be a bit to terse to properly explain everything.. Probably easiest to check it out and compile it, ask any questions that aren't obvious. If you have code that looks like it might fit into this then by all means commit it. I prefer if we don't package it in org.apache.lucene.** until its been refactored into an overall framework. I'll take a look at Otis's stuff and see if I can get that in here tomorrow. Sound good? Questions? comments? Thoughts?
