[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/MODCLUSTER-499?page=com.atlassian.jira.pl... ] Michal Karm Babacek commented on MODCLUSTER-499: ------------------------------------------------ [~rhusar], taking openssl as an example (exactly the same applies to httpd project), one can either download from an ftp/http mirror, e.g. * ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/ (httpd: https://archive.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.4.20.tar.gz) or from the official Github site: * either cloning: ** https://github.com/openssl/openssl (https://github.com/apache/httpd) * or downloading ** https://github.com/openssl/openssl/archive/OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable.zip I find all the aforementioned sound (but for plain ftp :)). Gotta look into the difference between what they "release" as source code tarballs and what's on the GitHub as a source repository. There is definitely some post-processing going on with at least httpd. So far, I've been using sources cloned directly from GitHub. Far more important decision is to embrace or reject the idea of git submodules of mod_proxy_cluster dependencies being directly in our mod_proxy_cluster repo. We had had a chat with [~gzaronikas] yesterday and we arrived at the conclusion that git submodules would make the most sense; although I have been having second thoughts since...especially due to the fact that if I have this structure: {noformat} mod_proxy_cluster | |-- CMakeLists.txt |-- native | |-- CMakeLists.txt | |-- advertise (other files omitted for brevity) | | `-- CMakeLists.txt | |-- mod_cluster_slotmem | | `-- CMakeLists.txt | |-- mod_manager | | `-- CMakeLists.txt | `-- mod_proxy_cluster | `-- CMakeLists.txt |-- openssl (no other files actually present from now on) | |-- CMakeLists.txt | |-- crypto | | `-- CMakeLists.txt | |-- ssl | | `-- CMakeLists.txt | `-- apps | `-- CMakeLists.txt |-- apr | `-- CMakeLists.txt |-- apr-util | `-- CMakeLists.txt |-- pcre | `-- CMakeLists.txt |-- iconv | `-- CMakeLists.txt `-- httpd `-- CMakeLists.txt ... ... {noformat} it kinda feels easier to use CMake commands in the parent CMakeLists.txt to download sources into the structure in comparison to adding git submodules and copy the nested CMakeLists.txt around... -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
