That directory is in the generated source tree for the engine module. * Production policy files are generated into the classes directory tree for the engine module. * Test policy files are generated into the classes directory tree for the testing module. > Switch to Maven for building Apache Derby > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-6645 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6645 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build tools > Affects Versions: 10.10.2.0 > Reporter: Moritz Hoffmann > Priority: Major > Attachments: DERBY-6645_v1.patch > > > For a new user building Derby is very hard. It does not follow established > Java project structures and requires a lot of prior knowledge. Also the > documentation is rather short. Especially running the tests is non-intuitive > at the beginning. Thus, I propose that Derby switches to building using Maven > and restructures its components in a cleaner way. Testing should be revised > to produce reproducible results. This would make development and testing much > easier and more user-friendly. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
