RE: Multi-library builds

Right after I pressed send I worried about the CVS aspect of gump. You could
work around it, but it likely isn't helpful. [You could use it, but it isn't
helpful.]

I think recent centipede thinking has been to rip out the "dependent project
automated builds", but I do see there is code in there. I think this is a
good discussion topic for the development mailing list (do we rip it out, or
restore it -- for single module, multi-project (and non-CVS) users.)

There are gobs of things you can do with ant. As we pick some and make them
a cent we have to make some choices, so no -- not everything w/ ant is
easier w/ cents, some of the basic reusable things. This was one choice with
this cent (at this point).

Also, if you have two only, could you not do:

	cent helloworld
	cent hellolib

Usefull information.  Gump does seem like overkill, and it also seems like
it is tied to CVS which makes it unuseable at my job.

So Centipede cannot produce two jars in one pass?  It's a pretty common use
case (for all the projects I've worked on, anyway), and if it was easy to do
with ANT, it should be even easier with Centipede, no?

I tried adding extra <ant> elements inside the <project>, in order to
inspire Centipede to build the other <project>, but that didn't work.  Here
is my module.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<module name="hello-world2" fullname="Hello World 2">
    <description>
    </description>
    <detailed>
    </detailed>
    <what>

        <version major="0"
            minor="0"
            fix  ="1"
            tag="HEAD"/>
        <package>mypackage</package>
        <ant target="gump" vm="1.2"/>
        <depend project="hellolib" inherit="all">

      	    <property name="ant.home" project="hello-world2"
reference="home"/>
       	    <property name="project.name" value="hellolib"/>
        </ant>
        </depend>

        <!-- Work dirs to be included in classpath  -->
        <work nested="build/classes"/>

        <home nested="build"/>

        <code type="java/plain" dir="src/java"/>
        <documentation type="xml/forrest" dir="src/documentation"/>
        <test type="test/junit" dir="src/test"/>
    </project>


    <project name="hellolib" fullname="Hello Library">

        <version major="0"
            minor="0"
            fix  ="1"

        <documentation type="xml/forrest" dir="hellolib/src/documentation"/>

        <test type="test/junit" dir="hellolib/src/test"/>
    </project>

</module>

Thanks for using centipede & providing user feedback.
