Are the build instructions still correct?

["Willmer, Alex (UK Defence)" <al...@cgi.com>]

Yesterday I was building git HEAD to test the patch for KNOX-949. The page https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KNOX/Build+Process says:

A development build (mvn clean install) does not generate "distribution ZIPs".

A verify (aka release) (mvn -Prelease clean install) generates "distribution ZIPs in target/dist/{X.Y.Z}".

I found that neither generated .zips or .tgz, of any description, anywhere. Instead I found running "mvn -Ppackage clean install" generated "target/0.13.0-SNAPSHOT/knox-0.13.0-SNAPSHOT-src.zip" et al.

Are the instructions on the wiki still correct for the upcoming release?

Regards, Alex

Hello Alex,

You are right, 'mvn -Prelease clean install' command does not generate the
distribution ZIPs. You can run the ant command 'ant release' to generate
the ZIPs though.

We will need to fix the wiki for this, thanks for bringing this up !

Best,
Sandeep
