Hi Alex, you're right, and Chris is aware about to make Ant continue working. If I understand correctly, he worked as well in ANT scripts to clean and streamline as possible, so that's part of the changes :) As you said, we still need to wait for his end this current work, to see more, but I

Sounds promising. I guess we'll see when more actual work is done. I still don't get the part about compiler dependencies. I thought it would take yet another repo/submodule to handle the current utils profile. Keep in mind that whoever is making these changes is responsible for making sure

Hi, will try to elaborate and complement over I wrote yesterday: The plan is to have a 4th repo, and there have 3 Sub Modules, each one as we have now (compiler, typedefs and framework). Ant will be work as always (calling "ant all" from framework will build as usual, and other targets should

From a release standpoint I'm concerned about the scalability of a single monolithic release. I would rather we head towards smaller subset releases. Even the Ant release we do now is cumbersome. But from a "get the code and build it" standpoint, a top-level repo that simplifies Maven

Hi, @Harbs you are right. the proposal is not disruptive, tries to streamline what we have. After reading the responses it seems my explanation could be bad, since all seems to be misunderstood. Will try to elaborate more soon :) El mar., 3 dic. 2019 a las 19:43, Harbs () escribió: > OK. So

OK. So it shouldn’t be disruptive to an existing workflow which uses the three separate repos. I don’t see a downside if it’s helpful for Maven. Harbs > On Dec 3, 2019, at 8:39 PM, Greg Dove wrote: > > " maybe an additional repo can be setup which includes the existing ones as > submodules "

" maybe an additional repo can be setup which includes the existing ones as submodules " that is what I interpreted the proposal to be. The advantage for maven is the possibility to do the same as 'ant all' by using the 'shell' repo. On Wed, Dec 4, 2019 at 7:33 AM Harbs wrote: > Submodules

Submodules doesn’t seem to have a good name: https://medium.com/@porteneuve/mastering-git-submodules-34c65e940407 I don’t really see a need to use submodules if we’re compiling with ant (or likely other tools). I don’t know

I didn't know about "git submodules" and didn't see it referenced in the proposal. I saw "one repository" in the subject. That sounds disruptive and I am concerned about scaling. I read a quick intro on "git submodules" and it sounds like we could add another repository as you propose. That

' IMO, it sounds very disruptive to try to collapse 3 repos into 1. ' I did not interpret it that way, at least not for now anyway. It sounds like just making a 'light' repo that has the existing repos as git submodules. That to me actually sounds like an easy way to handle more (than 3) repos

IMO, it sounds very disruptive to try to collapse 3 repos into 1. Honestly, I'd rather we make sure our processes can handle more than 3 repos someday. If the project grows, we may want to release things on different schedules. IOW, I think we should be thinking about more smaller releases

Hi, this days I stop my CI work due to some things. I was doing at the same time needed work for a client in implementing Jewel DataGrid and ButtonBar. I'm progressing in those components and hope to contribute soon as they are ok in API terms and looking good. Btw, Chris Dutz was helping me on
