OK.
For the moment, the ant build is fine. Let's hope that until it will
become deprecated (around 2.0?) Gentoo will have better support for
maven builds. One more reason to always keep the ant build up2date.
So, we use our own jetty, and not an emerged one, right? What if the
user used the tomcat flag? Shouldn't /etc/init.d/xwiki check the
status of mysql and tomcat instead?
Speaking of mysql, we could also provide some flags for choosing the database.
xwiki.jar is OK for me as the default behavior.

Hi Sergiu.

That's what it does? Hm, wrong behavior, indeed.
And yes, the standard USE flag is "source", my bad.
Some other USE flags I'd like to see:
src - for checking out the sources, too. You could check the status on
"ant src.dist"
There are standard use flag "source". xwiki
ebuild use
core/src/main/java sources.
Current ant src.dist target make only doc, lib (no need in 'source' flag
IMHO), and some resources but no sources. I think it is wrong behavior.
We can
override this with USE=trunk, which will checkout the sources
from trunk.
I think it is better to use a separate ebuild for trunk version
(xwiki-svn-9999.ebuild for example). Some ebuilds do so
(sys-apps/initng-9999). Another option
which will be needed shortly is USE=mvn, which compiles
everything with maven.
It is much harder. maven2 building in gentoo has some
problems. It is
using only in java-experimental overlay and very experimental :).
There are even (failed:() GSoC07 project in support maven2 in ebuilds :)
Some ebuilds using build.xml generated by maven.
http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/java/wiki/Maven_Notes
I think in ebuild for 1.0.* maven2 support is minor. If I find some
time, I will look at maven2 status in java-experimental overlay. What exactly
does "/etc/init.d/xwiki start/stop" do?
Init script will start/stop jetty
in standalone xwiki.
/usr/share/xwiki-svn-1.0/standalone/
For now it is use following command:
su - xwiki -c "${JAVA} ${JETTY_OPTS} -jar start.jar" >> \
/var/log/xwiki.log 2>&1 &
Maybe it is not best variant.
jetty-5.1.3-r1.ebuild in java-overlay uses /extra/unix/bin/jetty.sh
script which I find not in xwiki standalone. What is the
default build target? Or the user has to choose at least
one of war, tomcat...?
Default ant build target = release. But if user do not
select any use
flags he gets only /usr/share/xwiki*/lib/xwiki.jar :)
We need to consider default behavior for this ebuild.
