for json-lib: adding the dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>net.sf.json-lib</groupId>
<artifactId>json-lib</artifactId>
<version>1.0.1</version>
<classifier>jdk15</classifier>
</dependency>

to the pom solves problem i think. i would recommend to not use hard checked in jars at all. What do you think?

Although I haven't tried it yet, I think the json-lib jar has to be in your
local repo for this to work. Of course you can download this file from the
web but checking it in may be a little convenient for now. Of course it's
only for testing purposes... (refer to my comment in Fisheye)

To run techne.sh, 4 jar files are required:
techne.runtime-x.jar
techne.main-x.jar
commons-logging-x.jar
json-lib-x.jar

For now, you have to manually copy them to either the install/bin or install/lib directories. My preference is to copy the first two to install/bin while the last two are copied into install/lib. I need to figure out how to manipulate maven to deploy these artifacts into the install directory without creating a target. Perhaps an ant build using maven will suffice. As a simple test, running techne.sh will do nothing more than just start and stop the container. This is how I execute the test:

prompt> ./techne.sh -start -cygwin # only use the last option if you are running cygwin on Windows

Forgot to mention...the properties file should also checked out into the config directory. The file is called techne-properties.json containing the bootstrap properties in JSON format.

Which should work out of the box, I have had Mylar hooked up to issues.ops4j.org/jira

  • i just checked-in (amongst other stuff) a fresh pom.xml for install.
    This uses an embedded ant script to copy jars from other components to install/lib.
  • fixed different pom versions in components (uses pom inheritance for that instead now)
  • fixed an issue with techne.sh (from install/bin) and the CYGWIN flag. maybe we can skip that? we should provide standard win32 script (.cmd or .bat) and a standard bash script for *nix environments.
    Other then that wouldn't recommend including so much logic into the startscript.
    I always dream of using just "java -jar techne.jar". wrapping scripts should just provide some basic environment checks (java version probably, working directory)
    what do you think?
  • the subproject techne.main does not compile (it misses a "Shell" class from org.ops4j.techne.runtime ?)
