upgrade / delete old jars

[Juan Jose Pablos <ch...@che-che.com>]

Hi there,
It seems that we have some jar that need to be upgrated or removed:

To remove:
excalibur-concurrent-20020820.jar
excalibur-cli-1.0.jar
excalibur-datasource-vm12-20021121.jar

I am not sure if these are needed, I removed them and I run a test
without errors..


Upgrade commons-lang-1.0.1.jar --->  (2.0)
Cocoon use a new version.

Upgrade jakarta-oro-2.0.6.jar      ----> (2.0.7)
On the documentation it said that it was needed by libre, but I think
that is not longer true. I have not been able to find any reference.

Upgrade jetty-4.2.8.jar.
On cocoon there is a jetty-4.2.9.jar and on their site a 4.2.12 version.
Which one should we use?

nothing special, in our test site we have all the features of our 
sistem, so just "forrest seed site".

Thanks for the link, These jars have not been updated since 2002, and I 
have not just removed, I am asking the list for more info on that.

Using Maven I think is the right tool for this isn't?

yes, that is right.

Thanks for cleaning up. What sort of "test"?

Removing jars and doing ad hoc tests seems drastic. I wonder if it
would help for the future, to maintain a table of jars and their
purpose like Cocoon's automatically generated
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/installing/jars.html

Anyway, that table will help to clarify Forrest's current situation.

I gather that all of Forrest's Cocoon machinery is updated only
on certain occasions by following ./etc/cocoon_upgrade/README.txt

Hi Juan José:

please also update the xml-apis.jar from the CVS. We shipped by error an
old version in Cocoon.

Best Regards,

Antonio Gallardo
