Re: Migration to Maven - Mailing list pgsql-jdbc

If the build tool was Maven, I would use <scope>provided</scope> for OSGi. I do not know how the ANT script for this project works. OSGi is required for the building, but it is not required at runtime.

Can you advice us how to make it optional? If we did not provided required files build errors occurred.

We were able to build it, but we had to delete all source files, which required OSGi imports and edit build.xml. However I doubt this is appropriate solution.

OSGi has problematic licence


All OSGi jars are licensed with Apache 2.0. Is it problematic?




OSGi is an optional dependency for postgresql jdbc driver. It is only
necessary if someone uses the driver within an OSGi container. I think it
is hardly the case when someone wants to use it from a linux package
management system. That means that osgi jars do not have to be on the
classpath at runtime when monolith application is started. I do not know
this Fedora solution, but isn't is possible to ignore this dependency in
the Fedoray package management after building the jar?

We are trying to build RPM package for postgresql-JDBC.

There is no SSPI and OSGi package in Fedora so we are unable to build it.

SSPI is totally useless since it's just Windows thing. OSGi has
problematic licence, but after doing some research it's not required to run
postgresql-JDBC.

We believe that it would be really great for Fedora (also other distros -
lot of things depends on your great work) if We could manage to make these
two components optional.

After doing some research and talk with Java friends, there is a way how
to make it optional during build time.

Profiles - both ant and Maven has them, but in case of migrating to Maven,
I think it would be waste of time to create patch for ant profile since it
would just throw away.

Let me know your thoughts about this.

Thanks!

What problem are you trying to solve ?

Our bigger problem is to figure out how to have JDK 1.6, 1.7, and 1.8 and
... all supported by one codebase
