Working on Fortress Platform
Hello.
I'm working on filling in the excalibur/fortress/platform directory.
My idea is to create a distributable for Fortress that when unzipped
would look something like:
README.txt
LICENSE.txt
/bin
fortress.bat
fortress.sh
/conf
wrapper.conf
fortress.xconf
fortress.xlog
/lib
*.jar
/logs
Couple of issues:
1. I'd like to use Java Service Wrapper [1] for launching and include
the binaries for windows and linux. The license is compatible
(BSD-ish). However, doing this requires I add the .so and .dll files
to subversion as well as the wrapper.jar since the one on ibiblio is
outdated.
2. I'm going to include fortress-examples-1.2.jar and the distribution
will be setup to start the SwingExample by default. I'd like to work
on other examples in the future.
Anyway, just wanted to check if anyone had any other plans for this
directory before I commit. I'm testing the maven build at the moment
and if all goes well I'll commit sometime tomorrow.

Because I was the one who first asks for this Hibernate stuff I would
like to state that I've choosen to go with OJB.
I saw a very simple OJB component in cocoon wich was a good starting
point for me.
Thanks for your effords

It seems like it might be a good fit for Fulcrum.
The licensing issue would be that Hibernate uses the LGPL. There have
been a lot of discussions about this on the legal lists and some
resolution, though I don't know if an "official" decision was made.
I'll look into it.

Hi guys..
The code moved around.. From I think fulcrum to hibernate and then off
again. I can revive it if you want. There was some sort of issue with
licensing at apache. I think that has since been sorted out, so it
would be good to host it at apache. Otherwise I guess I could setup
another tiny sourceforge project?

I was one of the original developers of that but I have been quite
inactive recently, so it could be that it was removed.
Anyway, I still have some version of the code lying somewhere on my
harddrive, in case someone is interested.
It is just a light-weight wrapper around the Hibernate SessionFactory
(or whatever it was called) and I'm still using the code in some of my
projects.
Rgds,
Neeme

There are Excalibur Components and Excalibur Fortress modules
available. Go ahead and put in your feature requests and bug reports.

You might want to check out some of the components in the Keel
Framework (http://keelframework.org/) which is based on Fortress.
Also, it looks like there were Hibernate wrappers for Avalon in the
Hibernate project but they were removed due to the lack of a
maintainer. Some documents can be found at:
http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/turbine/turbine-2.4-M1/howto/hibernate-howto.html
http://www.hibernate.org/123.html
Maybe we can see about getting the code revived or moved somewhere. I
think Eric Pugh was the developer for that.

Where do I find JIRA?
I would like to see some highlevel database components in (I guess this
belongs to) cornerstone. E.g. something for Hibernate and Apache OJB.
But I'm not sure if I have enough experience with fortress to start
contributing code... I'm very new and just have a simple view off it.

Well, it's in there [1]. I'd like to make sure something like this is
distributed for a Fortress 1.2 release.
Speaking of Fortress 1.2, does anyone have any plans yet?
We've only got 2 issues in JIRA. That can't be right. Anyone got
ideas of what needs or wants done for 1.2?
