Brian, thanks for this fix and the README!
I've now setup Hudson to build the qatests and run a category of
tests (joinmanager) which takes about 1 hour. We should really come
up with a category of smoke tests that can be run with each checkin
by Hudson. In the meantime feel free to suggest a different existing
category of tests.
Also, I've switch Hudson to be true CI for River. It will now check
for SVN changes every 15 minutes and build/test if there are changes.

Cheers,
Nige

Cannot build QA tests using the supplied make files
---------------------------------------------------
Key: RIVER-291
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RIVER-291
Project: River
Issue Type: Test
Components: build
Affects Versions: AR1
Environment: unix or linux based systems with access to
the GNU make utility
Reporter: Brian Murphy
Assignee: Brian Murphy
Fix For: AR2
Attachments: qatestsBuildFix.diff
Originally, the QA tests and associated framework (harness)
that were created to test the Jini source were developed, managed,
and run internally. Because of this, the original GNU make files
used to build the tests were never converted to Ant scripts (unlike
what was eventually done for the Jini source code itself).
When the QA framework and the tests that are run by that framework
was eventually distributed, the internal make files for those
tests were
also distributed; but only as examples of what one might need to
do to
build the framework and tests. At the time, there was not an
expectation
that active development of the tests would occur outside of the Jini
team.
Now that the Jini QA tests and framework have become part of the
River project, it seems desirable to make the appropriate
modifications
to the various GNU make files and other related files to allow one to
build and run the tests against the Jini services and utilities of
the
River Project.
Although one might argue that it would be more desirable to convert
the QA make files to Ant scripts that perform the same function, it
seems like fixing the make files might be a good first step in that
direction; given that the creation of the Ant scripts will probably
involve quite a bit more work than modifying the make files. At the
very least, fixing the make files now, rather than waiting for the
Ant
scripts to be created, should allow River developers to run a
significant
number of existing regression tests without having to write duplicate
tests, or create a new test framework.
In addition to modifying the make files and other related tests, as
part of this issue, it would be desirable to provide a short "README"
file that describes the steps one would take not only to build the
QA tests, but also the steps one would take to run the tests.
