Hi Edgar,Let us leave asside the bin folder retirement and focus on configurable cross-platform OJ launching. Essentially I currently have two models in mind:
A) script model TODO - new user-friendly script names (oj_win.bat,oj_linux.sh,oj_mac.command) - adding a mac script which essentially calls the linux shell script (see attachement, it's tested on OSX 10.4&10.6 should I put it in the svn?) - rework windows batch to be one file only again (less files for the user to wonder about) PRO - virtually no work but more convenience for inexperienced users CONTRA - no generic configuration that works on every plattform B) unified launcher model TODO - create a java launcher that reads a generic ini file with oj and java runtime configuration (candidate is org.apache.launcher) - native launchers to be created for windows, mac, linux that start the java launcher (use winrun4j or launch4j for windows) PRO - generic configuration - convenient launchers with icons, that work without shell CONTRA - truck load of work - functionality is the same as the scripts, just slicker I suggest to implement A for now and target B on a longer schedule. I will check org.apache.launcher in the near future, but just re-prioritized my projects and will do it probably in two weeks earliest. regards ede ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
