Gradle Build [PREVIOUSLY] Re: Board feedback - Request discuss attic
for River
Thanks Dan,
Hi Dennis,
I recall Michael from Sorcer Soft (cc'd) also showed interest in a
Gradle build.
The modular build is here:
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/river/jtsk/modules/
svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/river/jtsk/modules
Do you still have svn access? It's a development build, I think people
would be pleased to see some development action.
The qa test suite is currently an ant build.
Regards,
Peter.

River's still using SVN. Feel free to bring that up for discussion or a
vote if you like, I don't think there will be any resistance to change.

Peter,
Can/should we work off of this repository as well?

Peter,
I’ll try checking that out. One thing, I had thought River switched to git? Or is River still using subversion?

Hi Philip,
The most recent modular build attempt is here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/river/jtsk/modules/
Cheers,
Peter.

Aaah, I may not be using the latest code then. For me, the maven build
is failing right now due to missing dependencies on classes from the
river-policy module, and that module doesn't even have a pom.xml in
it.
Which branch is everybody working on? And is work still going on
through the svn repo at the moment? I haven't had time to catch up on
all the email threads... I saw some reference to switching to Git ( a
move I endorse) but I am not sure if it's time to switch yet. Any
insight would be much appreciated.

Hi Phil,
It's great to have your help. :)
The maven build structure is almost complete, there are some junit tests
that need to be moved over to their relevant modules from the old ant
build. After that there will be some minor implementation dependencies
between the modules that need to be broken, as well as some issues with
the pom files themselves. I believe that the gradle build will utilise
the same module layout, so any work getting a maven build working will
not go to waste.
It's not at a stage where it builds yet, there is some work remaining.
It's probably best to stick with Java 8, as there will be some
additional problems building later Java versions.
Cheers,
Peter.

A Gradle build would be nice. I'm willing to invest some time trying
to help make it happen if need be. But I am curious.., it looks like
someone started a Maven build a while back.. From what I can see it
seems to maybe be incomplete, or just bit-rotted. But depending on the
details of the state of that work, would there be any reason to prefer
sticking with maven? (FSM help me, I can't believe I just said that in
a public forum).
I'm not the biggest Maven fan in the world, so I only raise this issue
from the "can we use existing work instead of starting from scratch"
perspective.

Hi Peter,
I am still interested. Dennis worked with me on the SORCER/Rio integration for a couple years at AFRL/WPAFB. He helped us to integrate all projects at the Multidisciplinary Science and Technology Center with git/gradle uniform build automation, distributions and testing. I do not see another better alternative for River than git/gradle.
If Dennis needs my help I am available.
Regards
Mike
