Hi,
Just wanted to point out the changes that have been made to the build
system to utilise Python for generating the framing now breaks the
builds for all of us using windows and cygwin.
This is due to the use of the following:
<exec executable="python">
<arg line="generate"/>
<arg line="${generated.path}"/>
<arg line="org.apache.qpidity"/>
<arg
line="${specs.dir}/amqp-transitional.0-10.xml"/>
</exec>
The windows mvn command picks up python from the cygwin environment
which of course doesn't work. I encountered this problem when getting
the python test suit to run as part of the standard build.
As a result you must specify the correct command line i.e. bash -c
'python .... ' for the python test suite to run correctly under
windows and cygwin.
We as a project decided to use maven as a build system. Can we please
ensure that for the java Qpid that all we need do is:
download JDK
download maven
checkout Qpid Java
type mvn
and we are done.
There should be no need to install ant or python or other tools.
I shall put the work in the broker to convert the ant/python to Jython
so that we can use maven but can the above python/ant pieces please be
converted to Jython and so a pure maven solution.
