Description David Strupl 2003-04-30 18:41:32 UTC
While trying to write tests I have created a
testing module named
enode-test.jar. I was very surprised that the
module system had silently
ignored my module. After some investigation
(actaully wasted several
hours) I have found mysterious line 387 (release35
branch) in
 org.netbeans.core.modules.Util. I beleive that
this should be documented
 somewhere! No level of logging will tell you
anything about jar file named
 *-test.jar.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2003-06-06 21:29:36 UTC
I guess I will just put the *-test.jar into /tmp instead. Makes things
simpler. The only reason they were originally in the same dir as the
module itself is that we were using URLClassLoader and Class-Path
extensions would not work otherwise. But
org.netbeans.core.modules.Module has for a while now directly
interpreted this header, so there is no other reason to keep the test
JARs colocated that I am aware of.
