Why is there no build.xml in trunk? #18

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Looks like it used to exist in the earliest tag, but was since removed from 
trunk. Why? It would be helpful for anyone hacking on trunk to have a build.xml 
to start from. Of course I can look at the build.xml in the first tag, but I'm 
left wondering why it was removed, perhaps because some part of the build 
process changed which is going to bite me in the ass now, for all I know.

Nevermind, I see the build must have switched to maven, as implemented in 
trunk/pom.xml.

You can find an old version of build.xml in tags/v2.2.1. The reason why 
build.xml was removed is that I have problem to maintain both pom.xml and 
build.xml in the same source code layout. If I keep the build.xml, I need to 
spend time to test the build.xml is working correctly and modify it accodingly. 
So I decided to remove it when we switched to use maven as build tool from 
v2.3.0.
