Right. The first (small) part of my post, which referred to yours, was strictly about versioning, and specifically about the end of the version string, related to snapshots. Then I addressed the classifier as another subject, which is more related to build management. > Would it be corrrect to say that, to further extend you examples, one > the qualifiers could be "slim", since clojure ant already has such a > target. > > Or would a "slim" jar of clojure have to had another artifactId ? (I > don't think so, but I ask to be certain of that) I believe the correct approach would indeed have "slim" as a classifier, because "slim" is an hybrid of the default classifier (.java files as bytecode only) and of the source classifier (.clj files). That fits in the original definition of classifier: "The classifier allows to distinguish artifacts that were built from the same POM but differ in their content." Thus, due to clojure's way of bundling AOT-compiled bytecode and/or clojure data structures as code, I believe it makes sense to introduce a new conventional classifier which is alien to purely java-based projects but makes sense to clojure projects. Following this, a conventional maven packaging of clojure would yield the following: clojure-1.0.0-<snapshot>.jar clojure-1.0.0-<snapshot>-slim.jar clojure-1.0.0-<snapshot>-javadoc.jar clojure-1.0.0-<snapshot>-sources.jar Now, let's suppose we really don't care about the javadoc-only packaging. Upon official release: clojure-1.0.0.jar clojure-1.0.0-slim.jar clojure-1.0.0-sources.jar clojure-1.0.1-<snapshot>.jar clojure-1.0.1-<snapshot>-slim.jar clojure-1.0.1-<snapshot>-sources.jar clojure-1.1.0-<snapshot>.jar clojure-1.1.0-<snapshot>-slim.jar clojure-1.1.0-<snapshot>-sources.jar Howard has already done this for the snapshot of 1.0.0, but he versioned it 1.0: http://tapestry.formos.com/maven-snapshot-repository/org/clojure/clojure-lang/1.0-SNAPSHOT/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
