Eddie O'Neil updated BEEHIVE-628:
---------------------------------
Assign To: Eddie O'Neil
Fix Version: V1
Yeah, derby.jar and the HTTPUnit JARs have different purposes in my mind.
derby.jar needs to be *in* the webapp in order for things to work -- that means
we need to move it and is thus why I prefer explicitly describing the path to
it rather than to the Derby distribution. If it's in the distribution, great,
but I'd rather copy something that is referenced explicitly.
On HTTPUnit, we only need to reference those JARs which is why the httpunit.dir
property exists. Also, there are many HTTPUnit JARs, so having to reference
each individually would be a pain.
In the end, the build file is just a sample, and it is easy to change in
another environment.
I agree that the derby.jar path would be easier to understand if it was
"/path/to/derby.jar".

> The derby.jar variable in build.properties for PetstoreWeb is inconsistent
> with the httpunit.dir variable. One points to a jar file and the other points
> to the install directory. The comment for derby.jar is misleading:
> derby.jar=/path/to/derby
> We should either make them consistent (have a derby.dir variable pointing to
> the Derby install location), or we should add a comment to the
> build.properties file indicating that derby.jar should point to the full path
> to the derby.jar like so:
> # Set this variable to point to the derby jar file
> derby.jar=/path/to/derby/jar
> I prefer the former to keep things consistent.
