It's hard, indeed. We did this internally, and while it's not too hard to snapshot the dependency jars and create, say, a local ant build around it, you soon run into Shindig and OpenSocial API/feature creep.
This was a few months back, though, so perhaps the framework APIs are more stable now, but after a while we spent more and more time syncing between our snapshot and current builds. Part of the cost of living on the edge! :) On Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 12:17 PM, Lev Epshteyn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've been looking into creating a standalone version of Shindig/Jetty that > can be used to test gadget XML locally, but this is turning out to be a bit > harder than I thought. > > While I can use Maven to build and run Shindig on my machine, and can get it > trying to render gadget XML files, I'm not sure where to begin in putting > together a standalone package that can be released in binary form, without > forcing the user to compile from source.
