Hi !

I fully understand your point and SUPPORT it. I dont like the DODS_HOME
story also !

I will talk to my developers to have that fixed in the upcoming
maintenance release of DODS and Enhydra.

Greetings.

Alfred

Betreff: To install or not to install DODS


Hello all,

since I'll certainly be seen as "the ranting guy" I want to explain the
expectations I have with DODS and why DODS currently doesn't fullfill
them.=20
If I have false expectations, please enlighten me.

The ultimate goal is to deliver a war file containing an application
using DODS.  This application can be deployed on any app server and the
DODS jars will be located inside the war file.

This goal requires DODS to be used like a library (IMO how it should be
anyway) and not like a program (that is installed, like the jdk).
Therefore using ./configure is _not_ an option.  The configuration files
will be located inside the war archive (so setting a fullpath is not an
option
either) and neither DODS_HOME not ENHYDRA_HOME has to be set (because I
don't want to know where the war is deployed and I shouldn't need to).

Current signs that DODS cannot be used as a separate library are:
- need to set DODS_HOME
- archive deployed under /usr/local (code smells)

Like I already said, I'm currently fixing these problems (at least for
runtime).  But if anyone wants to help, feel free to send me a mail.

Best regards,

-Vladimir
