Hi Amila, I re-read [1], but the question is not about how to compile the product with a patch. It is about how a user who downloads the product can build 3rd party extensions for it. Most of these (including those built by DevS, if I'm not mistaken) use Maven builds. The doc does not explain how somebody can refer a patched jar instead of the one coming from the Maven repo.
If you compile the source, this should be ok, but I'm not assuming that you expect all users (I'm referring to anybody downloading the product in here and not those within WSO2 who build the product) to compile source, before their builds. Or did you actually mean that? Thanks, Senaka.
