Nick,

Your recent additions don't appear to have the standard svn properties
(svn:eol-style and svn:keywords) set. There is a standard config file
available (http://www.apache.org/dev/version-control.html#https-svn)
for svn clients that configures this and a few other useful things.

HTH,

Mark

 We still have files without the proper ASF header.

I have patches ready to go for all of these and a few others. I've
just seen Martin has enabled my commit access so I should have these
fixed soon - I want to do a few more tests before committing.

The committers repository contains a couple of useful licensing tools.
I have been using insert_license.pl that does a good audit of all file
types (properties, java, html, xml etc)

 Thanks for the effort Mark.
 
 Can I  just ask that if you're doing any changes to the build, you run it 
 past 
 this list, since it'll interest everybody?

Happy to. I am not planning any changes to the build at the moment. If
this changes I'll let the list know. Most of what I still have to
commit is setting svn properties and inserting / changing licence text
which should, unless I mess something up, have zero impact on poi
functionality or on the build.

Two things I think it would be good to do but some feedback before I
do then would be nice are:
1. Delete /src/documentation/content/xdocs/dtd since they aren't used
for validation and the xml doesn't conform to them (older dtds from
forrest are used instead)
2. Add a some trademark usage words (like that on
http://tomcat.apache.org/legal.html

Fair enough. I'll create a bugzilla entry once I have some patches
ready to go.

 Most important  issue was the file headers. Been fixed. Key signing needs to 
 be arranged.

A number if source files have no header at all. I haven't done an
exhaustive check but the ones I found on my random wander through the
source were:
font_metrics.properties
various package.html files
various xml files

My reading of http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html is that
most, if not all, of these files require headers and that this really
does need to be fixed before the next release.

I should have some time to fix these over the next week or so. It
would be easier to grant me the necessary karma to fix these myself
but I can provide patches on a bugzilla entry if you prefer. Let me know.

I also spotted a handful of nice to haves whilst I was looking at
the build process. Again karma or patches? Let me know.

 Having looked, I doubt it will be a trivial

 other things I dont understand, apparently forrest now bundles its own 
 version of ant (why on earth?)

Having spent the best part of a day trying and failing to do this
(admittedly I am no forrest expert) staying with 0.5.1 until forrest
is stable looks to be a sound plan to me.

Re: Updated dist and jar tasks

2007-01-01 Thread Mark Thomas
Mark Thomas wrote:
 dist - I can't build with forrest 0.7 due to antproxy support being
 removed. I am working on what changes are required to get this working

Having tried, and failed, to get the build working with both 0.7 and
the latest source from svn I reverted to 0.5.1

I am still getting a build error in the documentation - a broken link
with hslf/hslf_shapes.gif

I am not familiar with forrest or the POI documentation structure but
I believe the following change is required to fix it:
move hslf_shapes.gif from src/documentation/content/xdocs/hslf to
src/documentation/resources/images

With this change the dist target works for me.

For consistency with the other docs, the img tag in
src/documentation/content/xdocs/hslf/how-to-shapes.xml should change
from img src=hslf_shapes.gif ... / to
img src=images/hslf_shapes.gif ... /

On a related note the DTDs in src/documentation/content/xdocs/dtd
appear to be ignored. The documentation certainly doesn't conform to
them - it appears modified versions supplied by forrest are used
instead. It is probably worth removing these to prevent confusion.

HTH,

Mark

 Henri's given us a long list of things we should try to sort out in the
 builds. I'm planning to try to fix all of them over Christmas (few long
 train journeys should help), but it'd be useful to have another set of
 eyes looking over the new build process when it's sorted.
 
 It looks like we're going to aim for a FINAL release in the early new
 year, so whoever opts to be release manager for it will probably ping you
 to check they've remembered everything, if that's ok?

Happy to. I'll check out trunk and get the build running on my machine
in the mean time. If you want a hand with any of the specific tasks -
just shout.
