[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss jBPM] - improving the build

[tom.baeyens@jboss.com]

I'm going to make some slight improvements to the build:

1) add build profiles
2) improve versioned dependencies

1) add build profiles
I'm going to factor out all the library version properties to a separate properties file.  Many of these files can go into the profile directory.  E.g. for each version of jboss, we can create a set of properties that match these of jboss.  Also jbpm internal dependencies will be included in the profile property files.

2) improve versioned dependencies
For each top level subproject, you'll be able to specify wether the sources are used (using version 'snapshot').  Or wether a specific version from the repository is being used.

For each of the third party libs, you'll be able to specify the filename and version in the profile properties files.


Any early feedback comments on this are appreciated.  Let me know asap when i should happen to break your build.
