Hi Nick/Others, Please see link below for Tika trunk build on Oracle JDK's (latest) 6 and 7 respectively. We also have a now deprecated Tika trunk build which was doing zilch... we also have a currently disabled cob configured to run with Oracle JDK8 (latest) when this become available to build machines via Infra.
@Nick, please see comments to your response. Thank you folks for the responses.

They poll the Tika trunk SVN SCM URL every hour for changes and deploy a job if they detect revision change to trunk codebase. * We now will be pushing ONLY stable Tika trunk SNAPSHOT's (currently 1.6-SNAPSHOT's) to https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/apache/tika/certainly on ever stable build (possibly nightly). This lets Dev's use cutting edge Tika stuff without having to build locally. You can merely include SNAPSHOT configuration in your project build if it can consume Maven artifacts. * Jenkins has a real simple REST API meaning that we/I can shift the script's I've written for automating nightly update and deployment of Any23 service which resides at any23.org over to Tika. This will let users and developers use a stable SNAPSHOT version of the Tika trunk codebase in a live Web Application. This is really nice for demo's of new functionality, etc. * ... blah blah blah don't want you guys falling as well :) > As for JVM versions, we currently require 1.6, so we need to test on that. > Newer ones would be good too!
