Issues building from source
I decided to do a little bit of investigation into my whitespace
regression issue, and checked out the velocity project to build it
from source.
svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/velocity/engine/trunk
velocity-engine-parent
Some observations:
1) The readme.txt file in the distribution still talks about building with ant.
2) The build instructions on the web site [1] still talk about
changing your working directory to "build", which doesn't exist.
3) "mvn install" from the root directory generates this error. I'm a
maven novice, so I can't do much more than report errors with maven.
This was with maven 3.0.3 under java 1.6
[ERROR] The project
org.apache.velocity:velocity-engine-parent:2.0.0-SNAPSHOT
(/home/[...]/velocity-engine-parent/pom.xml) has 1 error
[ERROR] Non-resolvable parent POM: Could not find artifact
org.apache.velocity:velocity-master:pom:2-SNAPSHOT and
'parent.relativePath' points at wrong local POM @ line 25, column 13
-> [Help 2]
[1] http://velocity.apache.org/engine/devel/build.html
So I decided to go back and try the 1.6.x branch instead.
svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/velocity/engine/branches/1.6.x/
This time "mvn install" from the build directory works, but we fail on
the tests. It looks like maybe I need to do something to specify a
@test.dir@ value? Again, no hablo maven.
Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 0.003
sec <<< FAILURE!
Running org.apache.velocity.test.TemplateTestCase
Cannot setup TemplateTestSuite!
java.io.FileNotFoundException:
@test.dir@/templates/templates.properties (No such file or directory)
I know enough to skip all tests, and that works, but I don't know
enough to skip just a single test. I tried a few things that didn't
work based on results from google searches:
mvn -Dtest.excludes="**/TemplateTestCase.java" install
mvn -Dvelocity.test.excludes="**/TemplateTestCase.java" install
mvn -Dorg.apache.velocity.test.excludes="**/TemplateTestCase.java" install

Oh, yes, we know, only no commiter seems to have enough time to do some
progress towards the release.

Ditto...

You have to checkout velocity/maven/trunk, and issue an "mvn install" on
that. It will install velocity-engine-parent.

I cannot help much on this one. Did you try with the sources of the
release ?
