Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-2761: --------------------------------------- To summarize, it is now possible to build and test w/ ant. This is currently done by pointing to a local (built) working copy of Cassandra (a site config). What's left, and seems reasonable to scope with this issue: * Create an alternate mechanism for specifying the version of Cassandra to build/test against (in order to run the tests against prior releases). I'm thinking Ivy could be used here to automatically download artifacts when a property is passed (-Dcassandra.release=0.8.0 for example). * (Re)build Cassandra as needed from the drivers Ant build, or at the very least, handle the case when a build is needed. * Fix the {{generate-eclipse-files}} target if possible, or remove it otherwise. Work should also continue to reduce the cross-section of Cassandra that this driver depends on, but I'll open another issue for that. > JDBC driver does not build > -------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-2761 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2761 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: API > Affects Versions: 1.0 > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Assignee: Rick Shaw > Fix For: 1.0 > > Attachments: jdbc-driver-build-v1.txt, > v1-0001-CASSANDRA-2761-cleanup-nits.txt > > > Need a way to build (and run tests for) the Java driver. > Also: still some vestigal references to drivers/ in trunk build.xml. > Should we remove drivers/ from the 0.8 branch as well? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
