Specs Question.

[Mark <de...@hotmail.com>]

Quick question regarding specs.

My build just failed due to a missing dependency: 
geronimo-spec-javamail-1.3.1-SNAPSHOT.jar.    I went into the 
geronimo\specs\javamail directory and ran maven which build the missing 
jar file.  I was under the impression that we didn't have to explicitly 
build the specs anymore.  Is this correct?

If needed the command line for the main build was:

maven -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dmaven.itest.skip=true clean default

Thanks

There were some changes to JavaMail module and perhaps that's the 
reason. I don't know how the spec changes are populated to iBiblio.org. 
I think it's a manual process. Whenever you change the module, you'll 
have to upload it to iBiblio.

Not sure what happened here - I wiped geronimo and geronimo-spec out of 
my local repo and an normal offline build ("maven -o") just built that 
module automatically.

I have not pushed the SNAPSHOT to Apache's repo as I am still working on 
the implementation.

That depends.  Sometimes we find bugs in the implementations, and some 
of the specs are not completely implemented (mostly javamail). It looks 
like Jeremy has been working on this recently.  Personally I always 
thought the time to rebuild the specs was a small price to pay for 
avoiding breakage due to spec module updates.
