[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-894) Custom build.xml for binary distributions

["Hoss Man (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Hoss Man commented on LUCENE-894:
---------------------------------

minor notes...

1) common-build.xml is a better name then "build-common.xml" like some other projects use because auto completion of file names on "b..." only result in build.xml ... perhaps this new file could be "demo-build.xml"

2) as i recall, older versions of ant don't include the targets from imported files, but newer versions do ... the only way i know to supress them is to no provide them a description, which doesn't work well sicne we want them to have descriptions when imported by build.xml.  a simple solution may be to keep the demo-build.xml file extremly simple, with no imports, and use <ant> or <antcall> to exec targets in common-build.xml (perhaps even new targets written explicitly for the demo)

> The binary files of a distribution come with the demo sources
> and a build.xml file. However, the build.xml doesn't work for
> the binary distribution, so it can't be used to build the 
> demos.
> This problem was notices the first time when release 2.1 was
> made. Before we ship 2.2 we should fix this.
