Hi,
I see that there is a ServerInfo interface in
org.apache.geronimo.system.serverinfo package. This has getVersion
(), getBuildDate(), getBuildTime(), getBaseDirectory(), getCopyright
() methods. Is there any other information (like the svn revision
for the server build, etc.) about the server that can be retrieved
programmatically.
If you want to take a crack at it, it shouldn't be that difficult to
add the svn url and revision number. The ServerInfo data comes from
the generated file org/apache/geronimo/system/serverinfo/geronimo-
version.properties which is created by modules/system/maven.xml. The
tricky part is getting the data from svn into maven.
Is there a way to determine the version and build levels of each of
the dependency projects like OpenEJB, Tomcat, Jetty etc?
Not specifically. Each jar we include with Geronimo has a version
number, but Geronimo is designed to support adding and removing of
components so the components may not be there. Geronimo is also
designed to support multiple version of components running at the
same time (so you can do a rolling upgrade), so it would be difficult
to pin this down.
In the 1.x future, I hope to have better class loader diagnostics
available which will let us determine which jars (including the
version number) have been loaded into class loaders.
