eclipse on f8
by Jack Tanner 20 Dec '07

20 Dec '07

It seems like f8 eclipse is heading for an update, but staying at 3.3.0. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=28594 Any chance we could have 3.3.1 instead? I'd be happy to test this if that made a difference: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=26944

Packaging standards for java programs?
by Bruno Wolff III 18 Dec '07

18 Dec '07

I want to try my hand at packing a java game (Colossus) for Fedora. I am not a java programmer, but the game is pretty simple to build use ant. However, I am not sure where things should get installed or if there is anything special I should do to make an executable (instead of having people running java -jar). Is there some documentation on suggestions or standards for packing java applications that I can read to get more information on how to do this?

openfire packaging
by Matej Cepl 15 Dec '07

15 Dec '07

Hi, did anybody try packaging of OpenFire (XMPP Java server; http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/index.jsp)? I tried their tarball http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/download-landing.jsp?file=openfire/… and it works pretty well with IcedTea from Rawhide (the RPM includes Sun JRE). Source code is http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/download-landing.jsp?file=openfire/… I would try it, but it seems a little overwhelming task for me (who knows almost nothing about Java) to package such huge daemon. Best, Matěj Cepl

[Q] Autotools Eclipse plugin & build directory
by Francois-Xavier KOWALSKI 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

Hello fedora-devel-java, I am using the Autotools Plug-in version 0.9.5.2 from your Eclipse update site, from Eclipse 3.3.1.1 + CDT 4.0.1. When creating a new autotools project[1], the CDT build directory is hard-wired to ${project_loc}/build. Changing this value to some other (eg. in my case ${worksspace_loc}/_build) is ignored. As a result: 1. In case a project already has a "build" sub-directory, the autotools plugin enthusiastically damage the content of this sub-directory 2. It is not possible to use a single source tree ${project_loc} for several build-trees (for example to use several combinations of ./configure options) From my understanding, the plugin should use both ${project_loc} to run the autogen.sh tool, _and_ the GUI-set ${build_dir}to run the configure & make tools. Is this a missing feature or do I mis-understand something? Thanks --FiX [1] Or when migrating an existing CDT project, this is the same result. -- Francois-Xavier "FiX" KOWALSKI /_ __ Tel:+33 (0)4 76 14 63 27 HP OpenCall Software - EMTS / //_/ Fax:+33 (0)4 76 14 51 62 Media-Processing Engineering / http://www.hp.com/go/opencall i n v e n t

FOP success
by Karsten Wade 06 Dec '07

Passing along one success report, from someone who knows what he's doing. Also, it sounds as if 'xmlto' is going to have FOP as an optional target, so we can test our full toolchain: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=147472 -------- Forwarded Message -------- From: Jared Smith <jaredsmith(a)jaredsmith.net> Reply-To: For participants of the Documentation Project <fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com> To: For participants of the Documentation Project <fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com> Subject: Re: [Fwd: fop built] Date: Wed, 05 Dec 2007 14:20:31 -0500 On Wed, 2007-11-28 at 17:46 -0800, Karsten Wade wrote: > Unleash the flying monkeys! > > I'll see about getting a Rawhide instance going in the next few weeks > for testing.

I finally got around to trying this out today, and I have to say this is a beautiful thing! Everything just worked! Wonderful! To give you some background, I've spent the past several weeks working on Docbook/FOP stuff for another project, and been fighting the whole Java stack the entire time. Karsten and Thomas (and anyone else who worked on this), please contact me offline and I'll find a way to buy you a pizza.

Eclipse error when doing a "Run As" in a java project
by Timothy Selivanow 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

I'm seeing issues when trying to do a "Run" or "Run As". I went through the HelloWorld tutorial to make sure I'm not missing anything, and at the end of the tutorial when it says: To run your application, right-click on your class in the Package Explorer and select Run As > Java Application. The Console view should appear at the bottom and display the "Hello, world!" output. There is only "Open Run Dialog..." when I right click on the class and hover on "Run As". If I go through and add a configuration under "Java Application" (and add HelloWorld as the class) or just click the run button on the toolbar and choose "Java Application", I get the following error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again What am I missing? --Tim _________________________________________________________________________________ / NEW YORK-- Kraft Foods, Inc. announced today that its board of \ | directors unanimously rejected the $11 billion takeover bid by Philip | | Morris and Co.
