Hi Felix,
I would feel sorry for Frank since at the time we wanted all tests to
be hosted in the JAXP repo. I understand the intention to consolidate
repos as Alan suggested. However, if the JAXP repo is not hampering
JDK development, I'd prefer an independent JAXP repo as is since it
made JAXP dev much easier. That said, I have no objection to moving
JAXP tests to JDK/test, that'll at least consolidate all of the tests
and you may then take advantage of the JDK/test utilities for current
and future test development.
Alan, what would you think?
We're probably going a bit off-topic here but I don't see why we persist
with the jaxp repository. I think we should have moved the code to the
jdk repository a long time ago. In the short term then it might be
annoying to not have the revision history (hg log) but we've been
through this kinda of transition already. Also in the short term then it
might require you or others to do some adjustments to your IDE setup but
that shouldn't be a big deal, esp. with the source code layout that we
put in via the JEP 201 work.
In any case, this all started with my comment about the tests being
split between the jdk and jaxp repo. What would it take to get the new
tests to be located with the existing jaxp tests?
