Something like MODELER_2_0_alpha (I'm not good for name) will be helpfull. Also, is this module supposed to build by itself? Right now the build.xml has a dependency on jakarta-commons. Bundling Tomcat 5 source creates huge zip file (50mg) mostly due to jakarta-commons source dependency. If the dependency is not required, I would be happy to help fixing the build.xml.. It wouldn't be bad if the source zip would include the commons code that we use - modeler, logging, digester, beanutils, collections. But you can fix it to include only tomcat-specific code, since commons has its own src distribution. Actually, this is what I'm doing, except I also include all the jakarta-commons. I guess I should change my script to only include the required one. I don't know if you follow the discussion on the repository - it'll probably affect us a lot. If things settle down and an agreement is reached - we should modify our build acordingly. That may mean we'll have to include version numbers in jars ( if this is voted ), start downloading and uploading to the repository, etc. Yes I'm following the discussion (read you post :-) ) Probably the some of the download script could be replaced with ruper or some other task ( I hope Ant1.6 will include such a thing by default ). Regarding the tag - I think it would be a good idea to tag it with each milestone of tomcat5. OK. BTW - in order to release modeler we need at least 3 +1 votes - so far I feel a bit alone :-) Is anyone else interested in this piece ? I am :-) If I can collaborate, guide me to what we need to do for releasing it :-) -- Jeanfrancois Costin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I am :-) If I can collaborate, guide me to what we need to do for releasing it :-) I don't know :-) I'm just fixing itches as I discover them. The thing I miss the most is feedback - has anyone tried the embed target ? Was anyone able to run tomcat using the JMX ant tasks ? Some time ago I checked in a feature that allow people to add/remove/restart Contexts using exclusively JMX. Has anyone used this ? Is it worth doing the same for connectors and other components ? Modeler is mostly driven by tomcat JMX-ification. The code is as stable as it allways was - I don't think I broke any existing API. The new features to support beans that are not explicitely declared in the descriptors.xml file seem to work fine and seems stable. The main issue is the new APIs - since they evolved based on the various needs in tomcat. A release would froze them - and they had almost no external feedback. In general - I have the feeling I'm the only user of the new features - and that is really bad and it slows everything down.

I think it'll be better called 2.0 - there are many big changes ( even if it should be backward compatible ). The best plan for a modeler release is: just before tomcat5.0. We can start building milestones or betas for modeler. As it is the central piece of the JMX features in Tomcat 5.0, I don't think we are ready for a freeze-and-release yet. Ok, so I'll have to include the HEAD modeler in my eclipse. That's the best choice. There are few more changes comming up - to improve the lifecycle and more interface cleanup, and I'm still working on the notifications. In any case - the code that is used by tomcat5 standalone should be very stable, most of the changes affect only tomcat5 embed ( or minimal ). Switching to notifications in jk and coyote would be nice - but I don't think it is critical ( we can very well release with the current model ).
