Re: [gsoc] Project Proposal-ShrinkWrap Tasks

Hi Andrew! Sorry for spamming your email, I didn't mean to do it 😊 As I mentioned in the last mail, I installed JDK5 and maven worked flawlessly after that. (Don't you think this should be rectified, the dependency on a specific JRE for building the source?) After that, I ran “mvn clean install” and “mvn clean install -P stress” and the Build Passed with 0 failures 😃 So I am able to build ShrinkWrap on my machine nicely. What’s next for me? (Also, I started reading the codebase from org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.shrinkwrap file. I suppose that was the correct way to go?) Hope to hear back from you soon, Pawan Sent from Windows Mail From: Andrew Lee Rubinger Sent: ‎Monday‎, ‎March‎ ‎3‎, ‎2014 ‎5‎:‎14‎ ‎PM To: Pawan Dubey Nice. Let's start out with getting you building the source and running a build and tests. https://community.jboss.org/wiki/ShrinkWrapDevelopmentAndContribution Feel free to correct the poor formatting on that page; it appears some things got mangled when they updated the CMS software again. How do those steps work for you? Can you execute "mvn clean install" and get a decent build with tests passing? Sure, you can use Windows, but I'll be able to help you a bit less, probably. :) S, ALR On Mon, Mar 3, 2014 at 5:53 AM, Pawan Dubey <pawandubey(a)outlook.com&gt; wrote: > Hi Andrew! > > Thanks for getting back, finally 😃 > > Yes, I understand that I need to prove myself first and I am totally up > for > it.
