Re: webapp resources problem
Sylvain,
There are definitely some issues with all of these build files. I'd
really like to get rid of the separate directories under the build
directory (such as build/examples-webapp.) IMO they just create a lot
of clutter since they only really contain a build file specific to the
webapp in question.
I wrote build-webapps.xml for two reasons. The first is related to
the nightly build process. I didn't want to have CATALINA_HOME, etc.
setup on the build machine which was basically required because of
some of the optional ant tasks used to deploy the webapps. The second
is that its difficult to maintain all of these separate build files.
The build-webapps.xml file works great right now but it doesn't handle
the deploy stuff. Here is what I propose. We should write a new
buildfile: deploy-webapps.xml that will handle the deployment of jars
already built using build-webapps.xml. Could you write such a build
script (using build-webapps.xml as a model?) I'm not a big fan of
deploying using Ant . I've had some trouble with it in the past and
so I don't usually use it. So I'm probably not the best person for
this.
Once that is up and running for all the webapps, we can drop the
subdirectories in build. One suggestion though. Lets not drop any
more directories or move anything around until 1.0.9 is released. We
don't want to make the testing of the RC any more confusing.
Thoughts?

Re: webapp resources problem
Posted by Sylvain Vieujot <sv...@apache.org>.
To be short :
- I agree not to change anything before the release (except the small
update I did to the main build.xml to fix MYFACES-153).
- I didn't had time to think about the deploy-webapps right now, but
yes, I'm ready to work on it after the release.
