[webbeans-dev] build modularisation of JBoss RI

[Mark Struberg]

Hi!

Just a minor proposal to the current SVN topology:

Don't you think it's a good time to move the JSR-299 API out to an own SVN module completely on it's own?

I suggest this, because currently one cannot simply build the parent modules, but dig deeper and release the sub modules on it's own. You will also experience problems if you try to release the current module structure on a fresh system because of quasi cyclic dependencies.

.) the tck/trunk/pom.xml cannot be built without the API from ri/trunk
.) the ri/trunk/pom.xml cannot be build without the TCK from tck/trunk

So why not move the JSR-299 API out to api/trunk or something?

The build order would then be

api/trunk/pom.xml
tck/trunk/pom.xml
ri/trunk/pom.xml

(haven't analysed where the test-harness fits into, but shouldn't be a problem).


txs and LieGrue,
