Hi I am trying to create a Buildr plugin for creating IzPack installers.
I tried to follow the schema outlined at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BUILDR/Setting+up+a+development+environment+for+Buildr+plugin and stumbled over the following problems: a) I think instead of using braid it would make more sense to use git submodules, which would allow an easy upgrade path to an up-to-date Buildr version and would not pollute a new (probably quite small) plugin with all the buildr stuff. Therefore I would propose to replace there the lines about using braid with somethink like this: > git clone git://github.com/apache/buildr.git buildr > # If you want to switch to specific tag/branch use > cd buildr && git checkout --force 1.4.6 && cd .. > git submodule add ~/git/buildr buildr > > Using git submodules is documented under: > http://book.git-scm.com/5_submodules.html b) With the actual rakelib it is not possible to call in a new plug-in "rake gem", as this would try to compile the Java-Library. The attach patch fixes this problem. If you want, I can also fork the github-git and send you a pull request. Best regards Niklaus -- Niklaus Giger
