POI 3.0 RC4
Hi All
Release candidate 4 of POI 3.0 is now available:
http://people.apache.org/~nick/POI-3.0-RC4/
For maven users, there's also the pom, binary and source jars available
for testing with:
http://people.apache.org/~nick/POI-3.0-RC4/maven/
There have only been a few bug fixes since RC3, but lots of work on
the maven artifacts.
As before, please let us know if things are still broken, and ensure any
open bug reports have all the information we'll need.
Nick

I've removed it from our template pom. One of the repo guys has removed it
from the 3.0-FINAL one in the ibiblio sync directory

The repo guys have made a few tweaks to the pom for 3.0-FINAL, which I
have included in the template pom in svn. I've also created a template pom
for the redirection from poi to org.apache.poi, which apparently we'll
also now need.

That is really dumb if we added commons-lang as a dependency to have a
nested exception.

Hi Nick,
Congratulations on the 3.0-FINAL release.
After such a long time its really good to have it out and it seems to work well.
Anyhow, I am very sorry to report that the POM still has a little problem.
Even though it did not occure when I checked the RC4 I could now reproduce it.
Seems I did not invest enough time to check since I am busy in multiple other
projects in my little spare time. Anyways I feel a little ashamed since
the problem is a general violation of the POM-spec that I should have noticed
especially because it was reported in your cited bug issue:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39977
The logo tag is invalid in the organisation section. You need to remove it.
I have seen that the POM is not included in the binary distribution and
the only problem is here:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/poi/poi/3.0-FINAL/poi-3.0-FINAL.pom
I have added a comment here:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-479
Hope they gonna fix this soon. I will do my best to push this toppic...
BTW did you notice this one:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-478
Regards
Jörg

Are there really that many people using contrib and scratchpad from 2.5.1
though? Almost everyone who uses contrib and scratchpad will have upgraded
to newer version of poi (eg the alphas, which only had the one artificat),
so that they can get the new scratchpad functionality.
My feeling is that people will either be using 2.5.1 core (but not
contrib+scratchpad), so nothing will change for them with 3.0, or they'll
already be using the single artificat 3.0 alphas.
Hopefully I've guessed right, and we won't cause problems for many people

Thanks for your work. I have tested the mavenized version of POI with maven
2.0.6. Your POM is gracefully accepted and everything works well.
I personally like the idea of not further splitting the POI artifact into
smaller pieces. Anyhow you should face the fact that this has been done
for 2.5.1-final:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/poi/
This will definetly cause confusion if maven users want to upgrade from poi
2.5.1-final to 3.0. They will have to remove the additional dependencies on
poi-contrib and poi-scratchpad. For compatibility reasons I would
recommend to keep the existing scheme. Even though this will cause the
overhead of building/maintaining 3 POMs instead of just one. Anyways the choice
is yours...
