Hello Mark, the build works fine from sources in my env:
Apache Maven 3.2.1 (ea8b2b07643dbb1b84b6d16e1f08391b666bc1e9; 2014-02-14T18:37:52+01:00) Maven home: /usr/local/Cellar/maven/3.2.1/libexec Java version: 1.7.0_45, vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/jre Default locale: de_DE, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.9.2", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac" I've found one strange thing. When comparing the contents of the src.tar.gz with the tag I get the following output: bene@localhost:~/workspace/apache/release-tools/dbcp2$ diff -q commons-dbcp2-2.0-src DBCP_2_0_RC1/ Only in DBCP_2_0_RC1/: .svn Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/LICENSE.txt and DBCP_2_0_RC1/LICENSE.txt differ Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/NOTICE.txt and DBCP_2_0_RC1/NOTICE.txt differ Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/README.txt and DBCP_2_0_RC1/README.txt differ Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/build.properties.sample and DBCP_2_0_RC1/build.properties.sample differ Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/build.xml and DBCP_2_0_RC1/build.xml differ Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/checkstyle.xml and DBCP_2_0_RC1/checkstyle.xml differ Only in DBCP_2_0_RC1/: doap_dbcp.rdf Common subdirectories: commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/doc and DBCP_2_0_RC1/doc Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/findbugs-exclude-filter.xml and DBCP_2_0_RC1/findbugs-exclude-filter.xml differ Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/pom.xml and DBCP_2_0_RC1/pom.xml differ Common subdirectories: commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/src and DBCP_2_0_RC1/src Files commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/test-jar.xml and DBCP_2_0_RC1/test-jar.xml differ And for all the differing files the result is: bene@localhost:~/workspace/apache/release-tools/dbcp2$ diff commons-dbcp2-2.0-src/LICENSE.txt DBCP_2_0_RC1/LICENSE.txt 202c202 < limitations under the License. \ No newline at end of file --- > limitations under the License. Can this be caused by the SVN checkout? I don't understand this. - The signs look good. - Site looks good. - Test coverage is very low (below 50% in some of the packages) - Maybe we can add PMD and CPD after this release? If there is an explanation for the differing files, you have my +1 :-) Benedikt 2014-02-27 20:42 GMT+01:00 Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org>: > It has been a while since it was first suggested but we have reached the > point where DBCP 2.0 is ready for release. > > The significant changes are: > - switched to Pool 2 for better performance > - added JMX support > > We have also fixed quite a few bugs > > DBCP 2.0 RC1 is available for review here: > https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/dbcp/ > (svn revision 4529) > > Maven artifacts are here: > > https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1011/ > > Details of changes since 1.x are in the release notes and changelog: > https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/dbcp/RELEASE-NOTES.txt > > http://people.apache.org/~markt/dev/DBCP-2.0-RC1-site/changes-report.html > > The tag is here: > http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/commons/proper/dbcp/tags/DBCP_2_0_RC1/ > (svn revision 1572625) > > Site: > http://people.apache.org/~markt/dev/DBCP-2.0-RC1-site/index.html > (NB Javadoc links won't work - they'll find fine when deployed) > > KEYS: > http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/KEYS > > Please review the release candidate and vote. > This vote will close no sooner that 72 hours from now. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > -- http://people.apache.org/~britter/ http://www.systemoutprintln.de/ http://twitter.com/BenediktRitter http://github.com/britter
