Ok, here goes again. The problem with the source build has been fixed

have to do this again, but here goes:
The new test build for this release is once again available at:
http://people.apache.org/~nbubna/velocity/tools/2.0-alpha1/
Check out the release artifacts, play with an example, and vote! :)
[ ] +1 Let's do it

hmm. or hack the docs build to use velocity 1.4, right? probably not
worth it, since 2.0 final probably won't come before DVSL 1.0

that would be great. i see no reason to wait. once the deprecated
DVSLTask subclass discussed above is added.

DVSL 1.0 is ready for an RC, I lacked some time to push it out (yet one
week of hard work and I'm on vacation).
Here's the situation:
For Tools 1.x: The DVSL ant task has changed from
o.a.tools.dvsl.DVSLTask package to o.a.dvsl.DVSLTask package. To make
Gump happy, I made the build.xml in tools 1.x trunk now use the new
package to declare the DVSL ant task, but it wasn't a really good
solution since Gump is the only one happy. So I'm gonna roll this back
and put a deprecated class in the old DVSL package. It's better for BC
and even if the next 1.x tools release is made before DVSL there won't
be any problem.
But for Tools 2.x, which is still using dvsl-0.43, it's a totally
different problem: it's simply that the published dvsl-0.43 binary (as
long as the 0.44 and 0.45 ones) doesn't work with velocity-1.5 (it just
needed to be recompiled). So to build the docs there is no other real
solution today than building dvsl-1.0-dev manually, copy it to the lib,
and edit build.xml to use o.a.dvsl.DVSLTask.
It'd be cool to release DVSL 1.0 quite soon, wouldn't it? I'll try to
initiate it and start the vote on sunday evening - I'll be offline
during the w-e.

Claude, this seems to be some issue with DVSL. It looks like the 2.x
branch is still on 0.43 while the trunk is using 1.0-dev. Which i
don't appear to have in my filesystem currently, so the 1.x trunk
isn't building for me either. What's the status of DVSL right now?
Any chance you could give me a hand getting docs building again? :)

we're only in alpha stage right now. unless they're really drastic, i
think they should go in now. To me, "alpha" means "the big
refactorings and core infrastructure is done; here's something to
*start* working with. expect some changes." I'm likely to make more
than a few small developments too.

it's something we need to consider. at this point, i've decided to
leave the old core infrastructure in place and deprecated. i know
there's not likely to be many people who directly interacted with it
(and thus we probably can yank it), but it's not really hurting
anything and might still be useful in some way i haven't foreseen.
also, i have occasionally thought that it might be nice to break the
many deprecated class out into a separate "backwards compatible"
build, but then we're basically talking about doubling the number of
jars we distribute. since we already put out three, that seemed like
overkill.
anyway, all that is to say, we should have a discussion at some point
about whether and/or how long we want to leave the various deprecated
pieces (support for old toolbox format, support for Tools with init()
methods, and the old tool management infrastructure) in place.

Re: [VOTE] Release VelocityTools 2.0-alpha1 (Take 2)
Posted by Claude Brisson <cl...@renegat.net>.
I tested it in a real webapp and it seems ok...
The new api is really much cleaner than the 1.x, that's a pleasure to
use it!
There are some small developments I'd like to commit in but they are not
ready and will wait for the 2.1 release.
so,
+1
One remark: when fully rebuilding I saw that there remains some internal
references to deprecated classes, like to the old ToolInfo class in
o.a.v.tools.view package, that could easily be changed.

Ok, I change my vote to a +1. Don't want to hold up progress here. After
all, it's an alpha. Anyone who uses this and complains about missing docs
will get support on the list.

-1. (sorry!)
There are no docs. All the generated doc files in the binary distro have
size of 0KB. In the source distro, typing "ant docs" also produces bad
docs.
Again, let me know if I'm missing something obvious.
On the positive side, "ant test" worked fine under both JDK 1.5 and JDK 1.6
I'll note some trivial nits, probably want to fix before final 2.0 release
-- notice file has 2006 copyright, not 2007
-- ant clean doesn't remove empty target directory
-- the VLS_readme file is written in the first person tense, but who is that
person? (no one signed the message)
-- the STATUS file appears to be out of date. (not sure-- worth a check).
best,
WILL
