More about the JDK 1.5 upgrade and Google Docs Integration

[Radu Danciu]

Hello again, and here's my progress report:

I need the Google gdata api integrated into xwiki to help me with my task of
developing Google Docs capabilities for XWiki.

The gdata api can be downloaded from:
http://code.google.com/p/gdata-java-client/ (other programming languages
available, but I believe we need java, right? :) )

Upon build, said api exports about a dozen jars into it's lib folder, of
which (I believe) I only need 3: gdata-base, gdata-spreadsheets and
gdata-client (might need others too, not sure, since I can't attempt to
build right now - the gdata api requires JDK 1.5 to build). Those jars need
be added to the xwiki lib folder and updating of build.xml and pom.xml as
necessary.
>From my observation, Google updates this api frequently (2 weeks?) so it
would be really nice if we could actually include the gdata download and
build process into svn / building xwiki (not sure if it can <or should> be
done, since I am not up to speed with how the whole svn building is done).

If there are any other details required, do ask, and I'll do my best to
answer ASAP.

Have a nice day,
Radu
