Jacopo Cappellato commented on OFBIZ-10145: ------------------------------------------- [~jacques.le.roux]: I can take care of updating our Release Management Guide but maybe we can wait until we have finalized the long term release strategy that we like most. Before this happens, I would like to proceed for the 16.11.06 release and I am getting confused about what needs to happen there before we can release; my understanding is that we need to: 1) apply the patch that I have submitted some days ago: [^release-16.11-without-gradlew.patch] OR 2) alternatively we can apply your updated patch [^release-16.11-without-gradlew.patch] after that Nicola has completed his work on the init wrapper and we have finalized our discussion on Bintray etc... I still prefer option #1 because it will allow us to proceed now and will give us time to craft a good solution for future releases. Any other opinion? If we go with option #1, are there other tasks before the release that I am missing? > Remove the Gradle wrapper from our release packages and add a step to our > build notes > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-10145 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10145 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Task > Components: Gradle > Affects Versions: 17.12.01, 16.11.06, 18.12.01 > Reporter: Jacques Le Roux > Assignee: Nicolas Malin > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 17.12.01 > > Attachments: OFBIZ-10145-gradlew.patch, > OFBIZ-10145_wrapper_properties_check.patch, gradlew.bat.patch, > gradlew.bat.patch, gradlew.bat.patch, gradlew.bat.patch, > init-gradle-wrapper-R16.sh, init-gradle-wrapper-trunk-and-18.sh, > init-gradle-wrapper-trunk-and-18.sh, init-gradle-wrapper-trunk-and-18.sh, > init-gradle-wrapper-trunk-and-18.sh, > init-gradle-wrapper-with-backup-and-checksum.sh, init-gradle-wrapper.bat, > init-gradle-wrapper.ps1, init-gradle-wrapper.ps1, init-gradle-wrapper.sh, > init-gradle-wrapper.sh, init-gradle-wrapper.sh, init-gradle-wrapper.sh, > init-gradle-wrapper.sh, init-gradle-wrapper.sh, init-gradle-wrapper.sh, > init-gradlew-readme-R16.patch, init-gradlew-readme-R17.1.patch, > init-gradlew-readme-R17.1.patch, init-gradlew-readme.patch, > init-gradlew-readme.patch, release-16.11-without-gradlew.patch, > release-16.11-without-gradlew.patch > > > Following the discussion at http://markmail.org/message/nd7grfiyobjkfwae, > considering LEGAL-288 and based on a lazy consensus on dev ML, we want to > remove the gradle-wrapper.jar file from the next packaged releases and use > [~jacopoc]'s related proposition to document how to have Gradle working in > the main README.md file. > # Extract the archive file to your local directory. > # Download gradle-wrapper.jar and place it in the > OFBiz-root-dir/gradle/wrapper folder. > I'm not sure if we should recommend a link to download the > gradle-wrapper.jar.
