I agree with all items except -Dxdoclet.force=true. I think there's no need for this parameter if we do a good job of checking all cases correctly (merge files, superclasses, etc). And I think we can further improve it by making it more implicit (I've already went that path, for example by making ejb:bean name param optional). We can indeed handle the ejb-jar.xml regeneration issue too, again if we tackle all cases.
Anyway I think it's better to delay release 1.1 for after new year holidays, not a good timing to release it now! And we'll probably added some other goodies too :o) Ara. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:xdoclet-devel- > [EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Vincent Harcq > Sent: Tuesday, December 25, 2001 3:32 PM > To: Devel XDoclet > Subject: [Xdoclet-devel] TODO 1.2 : Timestamp checking for re-generation > > Hi, > I would like to go the further possible for the check on if a class must > be regenerated or not and avoid the "touch". > (This 50% for myself, 50% for marc/david vision on "deployment for the > dummies" that they talked about on jboss dev) > So I propose this: > - Add a parameter -Dxdoclet.force=true to not look at timestamp at all > and force a regeneration : This would be used by xdoclet developers or > "when you don't know" (finally timespamp check is very weak IMHO) > - Timestamp checking on the class to regenerate but also its hierarchy > of super classes and interfaces up to java.lang.Object > - Timestamp checking on merge files (.j or .xml) > - regeneration of DD files only if one of previous checks returned true > (as Ara proposed) > - Eventually but it is not a top prioroity : @xdoclet-generated / > @xdoclet-version usage when upgrading xdoclet to a newer version > (xdoclet.force should be enough) or when developing xdoclet > (xdoclet.force is also more easy) > > Do you agree on this this? > > Vincent. > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Xdoclet-devel mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xdoclet-devel _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
