Hello! I have a problem, I will try to explain.. I want to write a game with Clojure and JMonkeyEngine (http://jmonkeyengine.com/). So I take their latest nightie set of jars (http://jmonkeyengine.com/nightly/) and.... what? I can't make use of them in my CCW/Leiningen project no matter how hard I try. So ok, I have found some examples where people get them in the "lib" folder and it works, or where they recommend pushing them to the local maven repo... but they do not tell how they do it, or they show it for some very simple cases. Sure, there is a lot of instructions like "use mvn install:install-file <a-lot-of-stuff-goes-here>" or "lein localrepo install <less-stuff-but-hey>"... so do I have to do it for all the 30 (thirty) jar files? Considering too, that I have to invent an "artifactId" for every one of them, invent a "version number", type all that in manually. And that is not my library, I do not want to invent that. And even, if I do that, then, how do I specify that all them are interdependant (are parts of one thing) and have to be always drawn in together? I will have to specify the 30 dependencies in my project.clj each time? Well, and even if I do, then I will still have that pain with manually copying all that stuff on each new machine where I work, picking it from the local maven repo and putting it to another maven repo..... And if I want to push it to Clojars, I have do that for each one manually too, typing in commands in the Windows cmd and taking care for inventing version numbers?... oh, and maybe I could go about specifying <dependency> clauses in a pom? pinch me am I dreaming a nightmare? :)
I have tried to do something along these lines... spent about 15 hours in general and got almost nothing but headache and eyesore... and a feeling of being extremily stupid for not being able to plug a few jars into a jvm program (isn't java all just about putting jars together? :) ). I am a Clojure newb and maybe I am missing somewhat essential.. but in Scala, with or without SBT, using Scala IDE for Eclipse, I got everything up and running in about 15 minutes. Please, could anyone give me a clear explanation or better, a full example of plugging in the JME3 into a Clojure project? Shouldn't it be simple? Thank you in advance, the situation is really disappointing for me :( -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
