improve build -projecthelp as far as building jars and such
-----------------------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-3960
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3960
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: general/build
Reporter: Robert Muir
Fix For: 4.0
HossmanSays: "ant compile" in lucene src artifacts builds jars for some
contribs not
all -- kind of confusing. I did a double take before i realized i
needed "build-contrib" to get them all and the ones i was seeing were just
because of cross-contrb dependencies.
Basically the ant -p is confusing in general. The 'default' task is actually
'jar-core',
which makes jars, but it has no description (doesnt show up in project help),
and neither
does 'jar' (which maps to jar-core).
solr/build.xml does a much better job about this. The ant -p seems more
userfriendly
and its obvious what targets do what. For lucene its not.
Also solr/build.xml defines 'ant compile' (lucene's doesnt, it maps to
compile-core, which
then behaves differently than solr for people used to typing it).
Basically I think the best solution is to try to make these two build.xml's
targets
as consistent as possible.
