Hi all!
Would you guys consider doing a 1.0.2 release any time soon too?
Paul Libbrecht a écrit :
Some people might even say the whole of Jelly is dormant, and indeed, I,
Indeed, before seeing this thread I was about to send a "is-Jelly-dead?"
probe message instead of this! ;)
as many other jelly committers have been unable to find cycles to simply
fix the most elementary things such as the wrong "how-to-start".
One thing that we would very much like to be in the next point release
would be the fixes in <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-286>
that have already been tested and committed in Jelly-core's trunk, but
never released.
E.g. the "Allow Expressions to throw exceptions" and " Jelly should
throw an exception if an unknown tag is used in a TagLibrary"
improvements (resp. <http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-163> and
<http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-13>) would also be helpful
to anyone developing with Jelly IMHO.
Also if going the Java >= 1.5 route you might consider fixing the
apparently trivial "nested exceptions are displayed incorrectly with
JellyException" bug (<http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-235>).
[...]
Jelly is used here and there in not so visible projects... that's my
blurred estimate. Since jelly is glue oriented, it is typically not so
visible and could often be replaced by another glue, e.g. groovy,
beanshell, shell-scripting with some greps and xslt... therefore an
estimate is real hard to make.
For us because of these bugs and some other ones it's becoming more of a
legacy library (we may try to move on to StringTemplate or even retreat
to XSLT again), hence the dire need to get at least a more
maintainer-friendly behaviour.
FYI we only need Java 1.5+ compatibility and reducing dependencies is
always welcome! :)
Regards,
Guillaume
P.S.: I initially wrote some blurb about this in
<http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JELLY-163?focusedCommentId=12751827&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12751827>
then in
<http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/commons-user/200908.mbox/%3c4a9699d7.6080...@wyona.com%3e>
without answer: I guess I should have come here in the 1st place, else
please so tell me/point me to what is deemed appropriate for Commons.
