Site migration to m2 build
--------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-2226
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2226
Project: Geronimo
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: website
Reporter: John Sisson
Priority: Trivial
Currently the Geronimo site is build using Ant.
The Ant build has been recently updated to use Velocity to 1.5-dev (I built
from svn rev 386004) to fix issue where generated html files have inconsistent
line endings when building the site on Windows ( see
http://www.mail-archive.com/velocity-dev@jakarta.apache.org/msg11613.html )
See http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=386059&view=rev
A conversion to Maven 2 needs to use a version of velocity that has this fix.
You can test whether the version of velocity has the fix by:
* running touch * in cygwin in the geronimo\site\xdocs directory
* build the site
* attempt to check in the generated site files under geronimo\site\docs -
if you don't get any errors about inconsistent line endings then you are using
the fixed version of velocity.
For a list of dependencies required by velocity see the doco at
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/velocity/engine/trunk/xdocs/jar-dependencies.xml
. FYI, the current Ant build loads the jars in the geronimo\site\lib dir onto
the classpath.
I don't know if velocity's project.xml file is up to date as they aren't doing
builds with maven yet AFAIK..
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/velocity/engine/trunk/project.xml
Looks like we should wait until velocity 1.5 is released as we are currently
running from a velocity 1.5 development build to get around some bugs.
