I've never really looked at the nightly script - I took a look just now
and am curious about a couple things: svnversion and no clean.dist.

The svnversion has 'fail on error' set to false here.  I can understand
that setting in the other build scripts, but svnversion is important for
the nightlies.  If svnversion fails because of a glitch in the Apache
servers or something temporary, then I don't think that the nightly
should be built at that time.

Yes -- totally true. I'll fix that.


I assumed that there would be a clean.dist before the nightly is built, but there really isn't any reason for that assumption. I am curious, though - do you intend to keep past nightlies on the nightly build machine as well as on Apache? Not a big deal - am just curious what the process is on this.

The top-level "clean" takes care of this and is more aggressive than "clean.dist". No need to run both.


Not sure how many nightlies we'll keep around -- probably not many since it puts a burden on Apache's infrastructure.


There is no Nightly wiki page that I could see, but while looking I did notice that the Distribution Structure page is pretty far out of date. Some of the stuff (i.e. templates) could use a touch from a developer like whether that stuff is still planned or if samples/netui-blank is the final solution.

Yep -- totally agree. Someone should update that at some point. :) I'll get to it once I've got a few other things (samples / Javadoc) taken care of.


Thanks for the feedback.

Eddie
