build sources does not work for rpm bound linux #160

Closed Reissner closed 4 years ago

Reissner commented 4 years ago

I have suse linux 64. If i understand right, it is not just sufficient to build the jar, the sources must be built also. As suse is rpm based, had problem to include liblockfile. After that i had problems finding jni.h. A look at the Makefile shows that this is not updated to java 15.

On the other hand, you provided dependency on a maven plugin for java 11+. You must have a way to build that. I just stolen the jar from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/neuronrobotics/nrjavaserial/4.0.1/. And it worked. I imagine this is only because you also used x86_64 to build it. So it is not very reliable what i do....

I think it would be helpful to provide a project for the maven plugin.
If you include all in the jar, then the variants shall be configurable.

The plan is to have the binaries built in CI. @MrDOS was working on that a while ago. I am going through and fixing up the build, so we can re-start that process if he was interested :)

In direct answer for you for local builds, either use a CI server or spool up an ubuntu VM to build.
