A compilation error in Remoting 2

[trustin]

'ant test' fails with the following output:

[javac] /home/trustin/workspace/checkout/jboss/remoting2/src/tests/org/jboss/test/remoting/transport/bisocket/BisocketTestCase.java:1813: cannot find symbol

It seems like org.jboss.remoting.Client doesn't have such a method. Is it gone, or is something not checked in yet?

[trustin]

No, I'm checking out from the trunk:

https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbossremoting/remoting2/trunk

[dmlloyd]

You should be working from the "2.x" branch. The "trunk" branch is sort of dead at this point.

[trustin]

doh! Thanks for the information. Then what do you think about replacing trunk with brahches/2.x? Is there any reason that we are keeping something dead?

[dmlloyd]

I'm OK with that - though Ron is the one working with it on a day-to-day basis. Consider also that 3.x has its own trunk, and that chances are good that 2.4 will be the last release in the 2.x series.

[trustin]

What do you think, Ron?

My anal retentive side is reluctant to let go of remoting2/trunk without at least looking to see if Tom Elrod added anything interesting there. Of course, I guess we could move trunk to "oldtrunk" and 2.x to trunk.

[trustin]

OK. Then what about renaming trunk to branches/oldtrunk, and branches/2.x to trunk? :)

[dmlloyd]

Seems like a lot of work for little gain, all in the name of compulsive tidiness :-)

[trustin]

Hmm it's just two commits, no? :)
