Subject: Re: Release Roller plugin soon?
I
found
where
jpa
1.0
was
mentioned
not
to
work
with
roller
take
a
look
at
the
"Roller
4.0
RC8
on
Geronimo
2.0.2"
-
tread
in
rollers
dev
list
(Daves
replay
to
fp).
Apparently
you
will
be
able
to
set
up
the
derby
db
but
you
will
get
a
Foreign-Key-Vailolation
wile
creating
a
new
weblog,
but
maybe
this
issue
have
been
fixed.

Now
that
2.1
is
released
(I

:-)
I'd
like
to
move
toward
releasing
the
Roller
plugin
pretty
soon.
The
major
obstacle
I
know
of
is
that
the
source
of
the
roller
war
used
as
input
is
rather
mysterious
and
is
certainly
not
released
by
roller.
I
can
build
it
locally
but
I've
forgotten
what
roller
modifications
if
any
are
in
it.
You
are
right
about
that
;).
If
you
chose
the
local
build
strategy,
checking
out
the
roller
4.0
tag
and
use
"ant
mvn-install"
(also
before
first
time
build
"ant
mvn-get")
should
build
and
install
the
roller
artifacs.
My
impression
is
that
this
should
produce
the
same
stuff
as
is
released
by
the
roller
teem
as
mvn-install
depends
on
"build"
and
I
cant
find
any
other
ant
release
related
sections
but
maybe
the
actuall
release
is
done
some
other
way
(?).
No
extra
patches
should
be
needed
every
necessary
patch
we
provided
and
wanted
to
get
in
for
the
plugin
to
work
smoothly
has
been
included
by
the
roller
teem
before
the
svn
branching
to
4.1.
I'm
not
exactly
happy
with
the
idea
but
think
the
most
practical
solution
is
to
check
any
necessary
roller
patch
and
the
built
war
into
svn.
I
don't
know
if
we
could
convince
the
roller
project
to
release
maven-compatible
artifacts
in
a
reasonable
amount
of
time.
There
is
a
"mvn-deploy"
section
in
the
roller
projects
ant
build.xml
file
but
I
don't
know
if
anybody
has
pulled
the
trigger
;)
but
releasing
artifacts
may
not
be
that
far
away.
But
as
you
say
a
more
practical
solution
is
probably
to
add
the
war
by
setting
up
a
extra
"roller-war-mvn-install"
section
in
the
roller
plugin
code
base
that
puts
the
war
in
your
local
maven
repos.
Another
possible
improvement
is
to
remove
the
jars
from
WEB-INF/lib
and
put
them
into
our
repository.
This
would
greatly
reduce
the
size
of
the
war
we'd
have
to
keep
in
svn.
In
the
long
run,
if
we
cant
convince
the
roller
teem
to
pick
up
maven
which
dosen't
seem
likely,
this
would
be
something
to
consider
although
during
my
work
on
a
maven
build
system
for
roller
I
found
that
4
of
the
roller
used
lib
jars
is
not
present
in
maven,
but
that
may
have
changed.
One
way
to
accomplish
this
would
be
to
pick
up
and
maintain
the
maven
build
patch
for
roller
but
maybe
that
would
be
to
"go
over
the
river
for
water".
It
might
be
worth
it
:-)....
after
spending
some
time
working
on
a
roller
security
refactoring
I
remember
so
many
of
the
reasons
I
don't
like
ant
:-)
I've
confirmed
that
we
don't
need
additional
roller
patches
with
the
current
plugin
to
get
something
installable.
I've
also
played
around
with
a
"no-libs"
roller
without
anything
in
its
WEB-INF/lib,
all
these
jars
being
dependencies
in
the
geronimo
repo.
See
the
GERONIMO-2994-nolibs.patch
and
GERONIMO-2994-roller-patch
patches.
These
seem
to
work
fine
(only
tried
jetty
so
far)
but
introduce
the
question
of
how
to
make
the
4-5
unpublished
jars
and
roller
jars
available
to
someone
who
wants
to
download
and
install
the
plugin.
Maybe
I
can
cook
up
a
way
to
get
just
these
jars
into
the
WEB-INF/lib.
One
of
the
jars,
commons-id-1.0-SNAPSHOT
has
never
been
released
in
any
form
whatsoever,
so
I
kinda
wonder
about
including
it
in
any
apache
projects.
Great!
I
hope
to
get
some
time
this
weekend
to
do
some
testing
on
the
patches.
Taking
a
quick
peek
at
the
nolibs
patch
I
notice
it
uses
G:s
openjpa
and
I
have
a
faint
memory
of
there
being
a
issue
that
prevents
roller
from
using
anything
jpa
newer
than
0.9.7
or
.8
so
there
may
be
some
problem
lurking
inside
;-).
On
the
none
maven
jars
topic,
commons-id
at
least
the
project
has
some
sporadic
activity
see
http://commons.apache.org/sandbox/id/.
What
surprise
me
a
bit
is
that,
although
widely
used,
none
of
the
rome
jars
is
found
in
a
public
maven
repo,
although
the
rome
stuff
is
clearly
built
with
maven
see
http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/Javawsxml/HowToBuild
Another
idea
I
had
before
releasing
this
is
to
try
to
get
logging
working.
So
far
everything
I've
tried
has
not
allowed
any
logging
from
roller
in
any
form
I
can
find.
Anyone
have
any
ideas?
Have
you
looked
in
jetty's
log?
I
don't
know
way
I
haven't
mentioned
this
but
at
least
logging
is
somehow
working
using
roller
on
tomcat
but
roller
seem
to
hijack
parts
of
the
logging
and
place
it
in
catalina/logs/roller.log.
Looks
