[jira] [Commented] (ROL-1621) Remove obsolete Eclipse project files

["Glen Mazza (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-1621?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13558026#comment-13558026 ] 

Glen Mazza commented on ROL-1621:
---------------------------------

Apache CXF doesn't keep the .project and .classpath files in SVN: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/cxf/trunk/.gitignore?revision=1411804&view=markup, instead you just mvn eclipse:eclipse after checking out the source.  Roller does have these files, but they're apparently being reasonably maintained: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/roller/trunk/roller-core/.classpath?view=log.

We may wish to stop loading .project/.classpath within our Roller SVN repository.  Not everyone uses Eclipse, they're too likely to get loaded up with developer-specific settings and/or fall out of date, and mvn eclipse:eclipse is simple enough for developers to use upon checking out the code.

> I justed downloaded the 4.0rc10 source package. And since it includes Eclipse files .project and .classpath, I thought it was an Eclipse project, so I tried importing the sources.
> But those files are outdated. The project's name is roller_30 and the classpath references several libraries, that are, according to the documentation, either no longer used or now used in a newer version.
> I suggest deleting the files .project and .classpath.
