Hi.
I have a little patch for IvyDE. It is attached.
I don't see any file attached. Do anybody else see it?
It fixes a bug that IvyDE always try validating the ivy.conf thus failing on
extra attributes.
With this fix, IvyDE takes the value of validate attribute of conf element
in ivyconf.xml.
Great!
For the future I have some questions:
1. Is this the correct way to send patches?
No, patches should be attached to a JIRA issue.
2. How can one become a committer?
I suggest reading http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html
As far as I can say, I think you should first show your involvment in
the project, by contributing to the mailing list, to JIRA, to the Wiki
and by contributing patches. Then if you are interested we can cast a
vote (note that I don't really know who is the 'we' :-)). But since
this is related to Apache Policy, maybe a Mentor could better answer
this question.
3. There is no Jira for IvyDE yet so I can't document this patch. Is it
complicated to open 'ivyde' category in Jira?
The process to create an IvyDE project in JIRA is in progress:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-1131
As soon as it is created you will be able to use it to create the
issue, attach and document your patch.
