Hi Anca -- thanks for supporting XWikiWatch. I agree with your
proposal to leave XWikiWatch as a component-only and not worry about
installers or making it a standalone distribution. I look forward to
trying your changes after you commit them.
Once promoted to component-only, it would be nice to have XWikiwatch
updated to work with 2.3.X, and to continue keeping it working along
with the trunk. You mention 2.3.2 explicitly. Is there any reason why
that wouldn't work with the current trunk or 2.4?
FYI, I had problems building against 2.3, after reading here that
there was even a chance of it working with versions > 2.0. Following
instructions at
http://watch.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Installation#HBuildingandinstall…
"go to gwt-client, gwt-server, wikis modules (in
this order) and
type mvn clean install in each of them"
I can successfully build gwt-server and wikis, but have problems w/
gwt-client:

But I am stopped by the following error:
[INFO] [dependency:unpack {execution: unzip-gwt-libs}]
[INFO] Configured Artifact:
com.google.gwt:gwt-dev:linux-libs:2.0.3:zipDownloading:
http://maven.xwiki.org/externals/com/google/gwt/gwt-dev/2.0.3/gwt-dev-2.0.3…
I'm compiling/running using:
Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-06 11:16:01-0800)
OS name: "linux" version: "2.6.32.21-166.fc12.x86_64" arch:
"amd64"
Family: "unix"
I haven't been able to find this gwt-dev-2.0.3-linux-libs.zip
anywhere. Any suggestions on how to get past this step in the
instructions?
Also, In the course of the build, it I noticed attempts at retrieving
1.5 Xwiki Core, rather that the 2.X.X version specified in the POM
"building over existing XE" instructions. Perhaps there are
subcomponents that still reference 1.5? Will these be remedied by your
proposed checkin?
