This is a good idea. And as we already did with watchdog we should do the same 
here.

+1 for the change.

Thanks

There is movement in the various Jakarta subprojects towards modifying
build scripts so that "build" and "dist" targets are created *within*
the top-level source directory, rather than "up and over" the way they
are now.  For Tomcat 4.0, that would mean you'd end up with the
following directory structure:

jakarta-tomcat-4.0
build/-- Build destination for Tomcat
dist/  -- Dist destinatino for Tomcat
catalina/
build/-- Build destination for Catalina portion

dist/  -- Dist destination for Catalina portion

(and so on for other subdirectories).

When executing the Tomcat you just built, the only difference is that
you would set CATALINA_HOME to point at "jakarta-tomcat-4.0/build" or
"jakarta-tomcat-4.0/dist" instead of "../build/tomcat-4.0" or
"../dist/tomcat-4.0".

I propose to change all of the build scripts (and associated README
files) to reflect this new structure, in time for the next beta release.

Comments?  Thoughts?  Questions?

This makes a heck of a lot of sense to me... ( an unofficial +1 I guess :)

You have a big (non-binding, of course) +1 from me. Having a script create
files "up and over" its own directory was always a little bizarre. This new
approach is much more *nix standard and makes for a cleaner directory
structure overall ... much easier to explain when telling someone how to
build Tomcat.

2001-02-01 Thread Steve Downey

As long as this works with sandboxing different versions of the system, it
should be fine.
That is, jakarta-tomcat-4.0 will use, by default, the ant in
../jakarta-ant/dist and the servlet api in ../jakarta-servletapi-4/dist, and
so on.
