Beckz,

How much time, waiting with your question unanswered, will make you think that the project is discontinued

Dear David, Having seen the sources of the current release (plenty of //FIXME and plenty of use of obsoleted APIs) why I would like to see new release of JFreeChart. I see from your message you were planning to give your users some "incremental improvement" release long ago. What is holding you back...

C'est la vie.

I'd recommend that you save yourself some time and call it a day. I sense that you are a "last word" kind of guy, so I'm going to let you have the last word. I promise to read it, and I promise not to reply.

David, I did not suggest you to leave SourceForge, however after my experience with the performance what they provided to me any time I used them, I have reasons to do so. I meant Kenai allows me to have an SVN server really quick. How could I show you otherwise the mavenized project and all the ste...

Source repository (SVN server) is probably going to be maintained by Kenai, there I can get one account setup easier (faster) than anywhere else. http://kenai.com/ Server which will store the produced artifacts will be maintained by Sonatype. This is place is close to the fire. :) https://docs.sonat...

David, Yesterday I finally decided to create a new Maven project and copy paste all JFreeChart sources (checked out from svn/cvs). Less time was spent fixing the problems with the Maven building process than trying to convince you to use Maven. (Needed to move out the Test classes to the test dir, a...

JFreeChart would sell a good book!

There is one reason why creating Maven repositories from non-Maven project will not work on the long term. The non-Maven project's build system does not use the Project Object Model meta information for building the project. Therefore nothing guaranties that within this database the dependency infor...

Dear Richard West, 1. This is a contradiction: Working with JFreeChart is automated I just include all the JAR files in my classpath Maven automatically includes the required JAR files in your classpath! 2. Because you are not having the problem currently, which problem could be solved by the depend...

Dave I was so excited about that finding that I forgot to argue: 1. I never considered a Manual upload process to be sane. Sane is when you automate anything what can easily be automated. (I thought using Maven). 2. I did not say the dependency management is a problem of a library provider. It is a ...

Dave, I have found a project with some hybrid solution, where the project uses Ant but its build generates output to Maven. Maybe this is what you want. You can look at its Maven POM file here: https://jna.dev.java.net/source/browse/*checkout*/jna/tags/3.1.0/jnalib/pom.xml?rev=827 Ant building scrip...

David, Maven people gave you sane processes and working tools. If it would be easy to give you tools and processes to your Ant to perform the same tasks what you can do with Maven, then they would have probably just built their system on top of Ant. They did not. I don't see any problem with the "pr...

Richard,

Because of your last message, I'll take back all my notes about your religious and prejudice-ness.
I only argue with that one: "you cannot teach an old dog".
You can guess my age easy.
