had hoped we'd have some kind of configure target in build.xml by now that
would fetch the dependencies for a project. Do you know if anyone is
working on that? If we had that, then I don't think we'd need the dep
links/pages anymore. Jim, I think Peter will start work on this as soon as he completes
the new download pages (pages that will include not just nightly builds but the
stable build for 1.0M9, etc. as I mentioned below). See the one and only task here
-- I think is Peter’s highest priority. Peter, Please edit this task description and elaborate on it as necessary
and then copy the corrected/elaborated task description in a new bugzilla item
for this task. -Paul Jim
Jim, First, I want to say thanks very much for doing this. Looks great.
[BTW, a nit: as soon as Peter completes his work we’ll change
your “nightly build” link
to “download” or “builds” or
something because the new page will contain the nightly build, the stable
build, the release 1.0 build (!), etc.] What do you think we should do about the dep link and wiki pages? Valery or Peter I notice that iss and iss.cardspace’s “nightly
build” links in the Downloads page don’t work. Any ideas? -Paul First, I want to say thanks very much for doing this. Looks great. What do you think we should do about the dep link and wiki pages? Val From: On Behalf Of Jim

[higgins-dev] fixing the component row templates I updated
all the tables for y'all. Some of the dependency links are broken
now. If you care, you can look at an old version of the page like http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php?title=Components&oldid=60587
to
find your old dependencies and copy them to the new dep page. Personally,
I think the dep column should go away. I mean, the dependencies can
be generated in a much easier and complete way.
I did
some very hacky stuff in the template using default params and got it to allow
dir=<somedir at the root of the higgins tree>, appdir=<somedir under
/app>, or plugindir=<somedir under /plugin> I think
people can convert over to the templates now
I took a
stab at changing the template to do what we want, and it works in sort of a
limping way. I really
wanted to be able to have the viewcvs point at the proper place regardless of
whether the project is under /api, /plugins, or at the root. To do
that, we need the mediawiki extension ParserFunctions loaded. I logged
a bug but
it's one of 84 on the webmaster's plate, so I dont' know how long it will take
for it to be addressed. Jim |
