Fop 0.95 Memory Leak fix?
As stated in
http://www.nabble.com/Possible-memory-leak-FOP-0.95-td19631169.html
Fop 0.95 currently has got a serious memory leak, right?
I can compile the current trunk version, but as I'm on Maven, this is a
no-go, as the FOP Project currently still is using ANT and some of the
libraries in the lib dir are of unknown version.
What version are those?
xmlgraphics-commons-1.4svn.jar
retroweaver-2.0.6-patched.jar
retroweaver-rt-2.0.6-patched.jar
Will there be a fixed version (e.g. 0.95b) available which fixes the memory
leak?
Is it planned to switch to Maven to resolve the dependency issue?
Thanks for your help!
Robert

Ouch.

Just take the HEAD revision. We don't keep track of which revision we
build the snapshot from. Only at release time do we make a tag.

Well, it doesn't matter so much to us (committers) while we are in
development. Things can change quickly. If a third-party needs updating
we update. Even if you work with Maven, you may have local snapshot
builds that you put in your local repository. You don't necessarily know
which revision this was built of. In our case, that JAR isn't put into a
repository but bundled with the rest of the sources. No external
repositories necessary to do a build. No disappointments when the
repository server is offline.
I guess what we could try is to include the SVN revision number in the
manifest. Batik does that if I remember correctly. We could do the same.
Maybe someone/I finds some time at some point.

Depends on how much (if at all) it hurts you, but yes, there was a fix
after 0.95.

SVN snapshot, yes, compiled from SVN Trunk:

I don't think so.

I would oppose such a proposal due to the very bad experiences I've had
with Maven in the past.
I suggest you ask on the Maven list how you can include project-local
JAR files in your project. I would hope Maven is as flexible as they
claim it is. ;-)
