CI of the Arena Project now available to Windows users

Posted by felipegaucho on November 9, 2009 at 6:40 AM EST

With the newcomer Vaadin module I updated the Arena Project script to support builds on Windows platform. Not a big deal in terms of configuration but it is worthy a notification in case you had tried to build the project before and got frustrated with the Platform Classifier restricted to the UNIX-family.

Why to use Platform Classifiers? The lack of a good Maven support for the Glassfish Command Line Utility for Administration (a.k.a. asadmin) forced me to adopt a shell script to execute some complementary steps to my Maven build - then I added some MySql commands as well. After testing the script on Linux, I translated the script to Windows.

Please help in testing the portable build script

Arena PUJ is open-source and you can checkout and build all its artifacts in few minutes, so if you have ten minutes to donate to my project, please follow this instruction and send me your feedback .

It is still a work under progress but I plan to have a stable script for Linux and Windows before my presentation at JFokus.

Now available in two flavors!
