Lukas Theussl commented on JELLY-175: ------------------------------------- Paul, First, thanks for your feedback and interest, I was really afraid that jelly folks are dying out! Now here is what I did: - grabbed the jelly-tags-interaction code from svn, build a jar and put it in my local maven repo - in the console plugin, changed the jelly-tags-interaction dependency to 1.1-SNAPSHOT and added a dependency on jline 0.9.0 - installed the plugin - voila I ran a couple of standard goals (jar, test, site..) in console mode and verified that history and tab completion works as described above (great!). I don't know what other 'goodies' are being referred to, I am not familiar with the jline library. My system setup: Linux FC3, JDK 1.4.2_10, maven-1.1-beta-3 (current development version). Cheers, Lukas > patch for jelly-tags-interaction > -------------------------------- > > Key: JELLY-175 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-175 > Project: Jelly > Type: Improvement > Environment: I've tested this in windows with and without cygwin. > Reporter: Ryan Christanson > Priority: Minor > Attachments: interaction.patch, patch.txt > > I've attached a patch to the commons-jelly-tags-interaction jar. This > patch makes it so the interaction task will try to use jline: > http://jline.sourceforge.net/ > Jline makes it so a java console will have tab completion, and > history, and other goodies. > This is great, because the maven-console plugin uses the > commons-jelly-tags-interaction jar. So if you update the > commons-jelly-tags-interaction jar, and then tell the maven console > plugin to use the new jar, then your maven console will have history, > and tab completion. > I've set it up to remember all of the commands typed in any console, > further it uses that history as the tab completion source - so you can > tab complete past commands. > I've tested this in windows and it works great, but in windows with > cygwin, it doesn't do the fancy completion, but still works. > By the way, in windows, jline's lib doesn't support arrows for > history, so use CONTROL+P and CONTROL+N. > Its possible that there might be a better way to integrate jline into > this lib, i've just done what looked like the quickest way to get it > working so my maven console would have history and tab completion. > Maybe this feature could be enabled with a tag attribute? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
