This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
This is a request for a general inception review of the "build system" APIs and architecture: including generic project management APIs, Ant-specific APIs, Java-specific APIs, project directory layouts, etc. The most recent starter kit, incl. all relevant documentation, is 040302 and can be downloaded from the given URL. More documentation can be supplied on request - probably a "developer's guide" should be added soon. Tentatively request completion of this review by Monday Mar 15, so as to enable a merge to the CVS trunk if the review passes.
The review owner of this issue will be Mila. Other reviewers include me, Pavel B. and Tomas P., but contributions from others are welcomed as well. We plan to have face to face review on Mar10. By that reviewers are encoraged to send their comments into nbdev@ (see thread http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/BrowseList?listName=nbdev&by=thread&from=22883), add comments into this issue or subissues by then.

Well the inception review was completed.
The final review of BS is approaching - it's planned on Jun 23. There are two remaining TCRs issue 41073 and issue 41074 open - they should be resolved prior the final review. I'm wondering whether we should create an extra issue for the final review but if there are no objections I would rather reopen this issue and changed the summary to "final review".
Apologies - TCRs are issue 40960 and issue 41073 Issue 41074 is TCA.
I am aware of both of the TCRs; they are both related to documentation.
Well let's start preparing for the commitment review - Wed Jun 23? Most of what you would need should be linked to from the projects.nb.org main page. I am still fixing up some Javadoc and updating arch.xml descriptions.
Still working on arch.xml's - adding them for some stavbicka-related modules w/o APIs (for which they were not generated during inception review), and updating them for those w/ APIs.
All build-system-related Javadoc and architecture summaries should now be published on projects.netbeans.org. I hope this is everything you will need.
I have updated opinion document http://openide.netbeans.org/tutorial/reviews/opinions_40703.html by notes from the final review. There is nothing more from the DevRev point of view so if there is nothing more to add the issue can be closed.
Ok. Closing.
