Hi all,
Hi Dennis,
Since I'd like to use trunk (version 3.0, in development) of Apache Commons Math, I was wondering if there is a way to download an already built version of it. I found the build server at http://vmbuild.apache.org/continuum/buildResults.action?projectId=97&projectGroupId=16. Is there any way to get the jars (binaries, sources, javadoc) that were build by the build server, similar to the ones released for version 2.2?
No, as far as I know, the build server is only used for continuous integration. Once the tests have been run and potential failure have been reported, I think the built jars are dropped.
There are no official Apache supported builds for unreleased version. The release process which involve a vote by the community is the milestone that allow publishing. Before that, there can only be unsupported, unofficial snapshot build. We don't do them really often and in fact prefer that people who really want the development version built it by themselves and rely on the subversion tree directly.
One should be aware that the development version is really that: a *development* version. Things change quite often. These versions therefore have some advantages (fixed bugs, new features, performances improvements ...) but also some drawbacks (things appear, disappear, change name, change API at a fast pace). So they are not suited to everyone and publishing pre-built binaries would create a false feeling of stability to most users.
What would you need a development snapshot for ? Could you use the subversion repository (or the git mirror) instead ?
Sorry Luc
