Hi,
I want to start checking in the fulcrum repository over the next two
days so I thought I'd go over the plan to see if anyone wants
to pipe up before I start.
There will be a core package which will consist of the classes in
the org.apache.turbine.services package. I would really like to
get rid of any turbine references so I would like to change
the package to:
org.apache.fulcrum
All of this code will exist in src/core and will be packaged
in a jar called fulcrum-core-{version}.jar
All the services will live in src/services and each service
will have it's own build with its own stated dependencies. The
build will look like that of Torque's.
I would also like to change the package for most of the services
except for rundata and intake which are turbine specific. Each
of the services will be packaged in a JAR with the following
convention: fulcrum-{service}-{version}.jar
I've borrowed the JAR loader from some code in Velocity that
Dave wrote.
I plan to be able to pull default configuration information out
of the JARS, but the core package will also obey a Fulcrum.properties
file if it is present. I am also working on a web console that can
be used to configure fulcrum from a webapp.
I would like to get Fulcrum (and Torque) in a state where they
are usable on their own and try to get non-turbiner's developing
with these tools which is why I'd like to ditch the turbine
package namespace.
