Hi Luc,

The development version contains features I need. In particular the patch
for issue MATH-586: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-586.

Since I would need to provide it with my application (people can't download
it, and I don't want people to have to build it themselves), I guess I
would need to build trunk for myself. I'll try that.
Thanks,
Dennis

Hi all,
Hi Dennis,
Since I'd like to use trunk (version 3.0, in development) of Apache
Commons Math, I was wondering if there is a way to download an already
built version of it. I found the build server at
http://vmbuild.apache.org/continuum/buildResults.action?projectId=97&projectGroupId=16.
Is there any way to get the jars (binaries, sources, javadoc) that were
build by the build server, similar to the ones released for version 2.2?
No, as far as I know, the build server is only used for continuous
integration. Once the tests have been run and potential failure have
been reported, I think the built jars are dropped.
There are no official Apache supported builds for unreleased version.
The release process which involve a vote by the community is the
milestone that allow publishing. Before that, there can only be
unsupported, unofficial snapshot build. We don't do them really often
and in fact prefer that people who really want the development version
built it by themselves and rely on the subversion tree directly.
One should be aware that the development version is really that: a
*development* version. Things change quite often. These versions
therefore have some advantages (fixed bugs, new features, performances
improvements ...) but also some drawbacks (things appear, disappear,
change name, change API at a fast pace). So they are not suited to
everyone and publishing pre-built binaries would create a false feeling
of stability to most users.
What would you need a development snapshot for ? Could you use the
subversion repository (or the git mirror) instead ?
Sorry
Luc
Thanks,
Dennis
