Newbie build issue

[marklittle]

I downloaded the version 1.0.2 from http://www.jboss.org/products/list/downloads#jbossmc expecting to get something that built out-of-the-box. That isn't case, which in itself isn't a problem, but there's no Readme.txt (or whatever you want to call it) that indicates what else I need to download in order to build. I'm probably missing something, so apologies in advance, but is there a different version/location I should be using to get the src, or is there something that describes how to build the MC?

Thanks,

Mark.

See http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossMicrocontainer where the cvs module is declared as jbossmc and can be checked out using one of:

cvs -d :pserver:[e-mail]:/cvsroot/jboss co jbossmc
cvs -d :ext:[e-mail]:/cvsroot/jboss co jbossmc

Thanks, that helped. But given that I get the following when using JDK 1.4.2:

[execmodules] /Users/marklittle/Documents/workspace/jbossmc/test/src/main/org/jboss/test/JBossTestCase.java:29: package javax.management does not exist
[execmodules] import javax.management.MBeanServerConnection;
[execmodules] ^
[execmodules] /Users/marklittle/Documents/workspace/jbossmc/test/src/main/org/jboss/test/JBossTestCase.java:30: package javax.management does not exist
[execmodules] import javax.management.MalformedObjectNameException;
[execmodules] ^

[execmodules] /Users/marklittle/Documents/workspace/jbossmc/test/src/main/org/jboss/test/JBossTestServices.java:29: package javax.management does not exist
[execmodules] import javax.management.ObjectName;

it may be an idea to point out somewhere that it's only supposed to build with J2SE 5.0 (I seem to recall that is the case, isn't it?)

If you are compiling with a 1.4.x JDK, then add the JMX .jars.

[marklittle]

Yeah, but that wasn't my point. Going back to the first comment: if you want this to build out-of-the-box (which is always a good idea, or people may just dump it and move on to someone else's), then it needs to either come with everything you need (and it does if you build with 5), or come with instructions telling you what else you need (which it doesn't if you build with 1.4).

Adrian needs to define how the release is built then.

I don't know where those instructions came from on the WIKI
(unless it was a cut and paste error when the page was originally
constructed).

I've updated the WIKI page:

They came from me guessing how you were building it!
