Experiences getting latest of all avalons projects..
I'm replacing RMI in my project with Altrmi thus I had a good excuse to
upgrade to the latest of all the avalon family. Here's my comments on getting
a fresh CVS checkout of all + building.
On the main avalon page (http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon) the "Jakarta Home"
link is broken, it returns you back to the main avalon page.
It would be nice to have a link to the CVS checkout instructions somewhere on
the avalon front page. I know where to go for the CVS information, but others
may not.
I noticed in the checkout of jakarta-avalon that it downloaded a copy of
avalon-framework and avalon-excalibur jars (in tools/ext). Seems kinda silly
but I guess there is a reason.
Framework: Piece of cake!
Logkit: Same!
Excalibur: Realized I needed logkit :)
Also failed building component:
compile:
Compiling 1 source file to
/usr/local/src/java/jakarta-avalon-excalibur/component/build/classes
Found 2 semantic errors compiling
"/usr/local/src/java/jakarta-avalon-excalibur/component/src/java/org/apache/avalon/excalibur/component/PoolableComponentHandler.java":
12. import org.apache.avalon.excalibur.pool.ResourceLimitingPool;
<------------------>
*** Error: Could not find package "org/apache/avalon/excalibur/instrument" in:
/usr/local/src/java/jakarta-avalon-excalibur/component/build/classes
Copying ant.properties.sample to ant.properties fixed that. I didn't read the
README and just went at it :)
Also it would be nice if there were a javadocs target in the top-level
buildfile.
Phoenix: Build was fine, javadocs caught me for a sec before I noticed the
separate ant file.
Cornerstone: perfect.
Otherwise, looking very nice! I'll report back on how my altrmi experience
goes. it looks like it may already have what I want to implement (generating
a proxy for the interface to remote to log how long the method calls take).

This morning, ~10am EST. depchecker.xml was there.

unsure, but copying ant.properties.sample to ant.properties fixed :)

For the doc system. Cocoon needs avalon and excalibur.

How recent was this CVS checkout? Did it have the dependency checking
stuff (depchecker.xml)? In the CVS head, there's a check to ensure Pool
is built before Component:
<ant antfile="${depchecker.prefix}/depchecker.xml" target="checkPool"/>
If this was present but failed for some reason, I'd be interested to
find out why.

Nobody reads README files ;) Excalibur should be buildable by typing
'ant', and if something goes wrong the error message should provide a
solution.

Have added it to my todo list

Fixed the problem (missing excalibur-instrument.jar entry in
default.properties). Should no longer need to set ant.properties.
