My name is Les, and I've been involved in open source projects for a while, and I'm interested in possibly joining the Hibernate development team.
I had the opportunity to meet Gavin this past weekend. We talked a little about an open source project I started that is still in alpha development stages (http://dewdrop.sf.net) only to find out that Hibernate now supports what I was attempting to create (table-per-subclass mapping mechanism, which didn't exist in Hibernate 6 months ago). Anyway, I'm definitely not one to reinvent the wheel, so we discussed perhaps migrating my development efforts to Hibernate, and just helping out in general, and he kindly directed me to this list. There may still be a place for DewDrop somewhere, so I won't scrap it just yet.
Anyway, I downloaded the latest beta binary version of Hibernate this morning and untarred it to start using it. However, I noticed there were no linux binary scripts to run. So I created some :) I also re-wrote the windows batch scripts to be more robust and flexible with respect to how classpaths are set.
I didn't test the windows scripts, so someone needs to run them on a windows box to make sure they work (although the code is pretty trivial and should run nicely). The linux scripts all work properly (I tested all of them) and are chmodded to execute permissions. If you manipulate these files in an ant build (or copy them from one location to another during build time), please ensure that the <chmod/> ant task sets the execute permissions properly for *nix users.
The directory structure of the attached file is as follows:
bin-scripts
|
|--bin (rewritten and new Hibernate bin scripts, for win and *nix)
|
|--tools
|
|--bin (rewritten and new Tools bin scripts, for win and *nix).
Naturally, please feel free to format/rewrite/reuse the code however you feel that it may benefit Hibernate.
