Description _ briansmith 2002-09-12 21:32:08 UTC

After the extra binaries scrambing merge, MDR
module does not build anymore when it is part of
the moduleconfig if you don't have the scripting
module pulled from CVS:

E:\brian\projects\netbeans\nb_all\mdr\build.xml:74:
E:\brian\projects\netbeans\nb_all\scripting\external
not found.

Previously, MDR would build just fine without
having the scripting module pulled.

This is not a defect. Scripting module is part of standard netbeans
distribution. Previously it did not fail because the extra binaries
package *did* always contain extra binaries also for scripting module
(even if you did not check out the sources). Now you get only binaries
of the modules that you have checked out.
But anyway, the dependency on the scripting module is there because
the mdrshell application needs it. I am now restructuring the MDR a
bit (I have created a new autoload module from jmiutils, moved
org.netbeans.mdr.shell to org.netbeans.mdrshell and removed building
of mdrshell application from the default build target - you will see
more info about that today on the mailing list), which should make
this problem disappear.
